CLUE 5

For a while a constable was all Lexington needed
But with taverns and tramps, ‘Help!’ was pleaded
 
A department was formed, for laws need to be enforced 
Visit them now and your booklet they will endorse
 
The year for which you may be looking 
Is in the seal you receive where they do the booking






CLUE 6


The night sky has just one, but Lexington has six
A hill with mid-century architectural tricks

This modernist neighborhood is quite a fine place
Designed as a collaborative, community space
 
The Common Land is the parcel you must find 
To make a rubbing (“Bring a crayon,” I remind)

This park is on a road which matches the name
of the neighborhood you are searching with TAC fame
 
Locate a special bench and rub the year that’s engraved
And write it in the back, forever to be saved
