Reservoir Park, National Historic Landmark park in Brookline, Massachusetts.
The 32-acre park features a gravel walking track surrounding a man-made reservoir with numerous benches along the perimeter path.
The reservoir, constructed in 1848, served as the terminus of the Cochituate Aqueduct, which transported water from Lake Cochituate to Boston.
The Principal Gatehouse exhibits Renaissance Revival and Greek architectural elements, with wrought iron stairs representing early American public infrastructure.
Visitors can access the park daily from 6 AM to 7 PM using the Route 51 bus or parking on nearby side streets.
The granite Principal Gatehouse contains the oldest surviving public wrought iron stairs in the United States.
