    Sunday, June 13, 2pm HISTORIC NEWTON WALKS Chestnut Hill Reservior: Clean Water and Bucolic Recreation for a Growing City Take a brisk 1.5 mile walk around the Chestnut Hill Reservoir and find out about its role in supplying Boston with clean water from 1868 until the 1970s. At the Waterworks Building, we will be joined by a member of the soon-to-be-opened Waterworks Museum who will show us the great steam engines that powered the water distribution and give us details about how the Reservoir was constructed and how its structures have been sensitively converted into condos. Meet in the angled parking lot on Chestnut Hill Driveway overlooking the reservoir on the North side. Free
