Sponsored by the Newton History Museum.
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

Historic Newton Walks: Fruits of their Labors:
The Kenrick Nursery
Sponsored by the Newton History Museum.
Many of our most beloved fruit and tree varieties, including many in our gardens today, first came to this country through the Kenrick family nurseries.
Their Waverley Avenue home, and the trees shading the streets of Farlow Hill, are fitting tribute to their labors.
Join Lucinda Brockway, landscape preservationist, for a walk over Farlow Hill looking at the legacy of the Kenrick Nursery.
Meet at the Durant-Kenrick House, 286 Waverley Avenue, Newton. Free.
