The Riverwalk
features vestiges of one of the oldest dams on the Charles River,
with remains of raceways built by David Bemis in 1778, and scenic
views of the Charles River. The path from Galen Street in Watertown
Square, improved by the MDC in 1998, offers scenic overlooks, a
fish ladder at Watertown Dam, falls, fishing areas, and boat launches.
Forte Park, formerly Allison Park,
features a soccer field, basketball
courts, children's playground, and restrooms. On summer evenings, herons roost
on the Charles River bank next to the park.
