Residents near London's Kensington Gardens have succeeded in having plans for an elaborate Princess Diana memorial scaled back, the Associated Press reports. They fear neighborhood damage would result from the potentially staggering number of visitors to such a site. British treasury chief Gordon Brown says the original proposal for a 2.7-acre site costing $16.5 million has been replaced by a more understated plan involving a smaller garden. It will also have a memorial walkway connecting four of London's great parks -- Kensington, Hyde, Green and St. James. "This will be one of the most magnificent urban parkland walks in the world," said Brown, who did not release a cost estimate for the new project. Princess Diana died in a car crash in Paris on Aug. 31, 1997.
