Restoring Farlow Park Bridge and Pond
In 1880 John Farlow, a successful railroad businessman, donated land
to the city for the purposes of creating Newton’s first open space for
recreation and relaxation. The focal point for the park was a pond
with a handsome Adirondack style bridge, but in the 1950s the water
was drained from the pond and the deteriorating bridge removed. Join
us in celebrating the opening of this new exhibit about the history of
the park and contemporary efforts to restore it.
