Leverett Pond, Brookline MA The Muddy River and Leverett Pond - TopicsExpress



          

Leverett Pond, Brookline MA The Muddy River and Leverett Pond form the boundary between the City of Boston and the Town of Brookline. The Brookline Land Company coordinated with F. L. Olmsted as he designed the Emerald Necklace, ultimately selling some of its land to make Leverett Pond and Olmsted Park. It was of course in their best interest to do so, as Olmsteds efforts transformed a marshy, flood-prone, disease-breeding, sprawling tributary into an attractive, well-contained river course and linear park.
