Glastonbury Riverfront Park

Cris and I took a pleasant walk around Glastonbury Riverfront Park. Its a beautiful spot and made even more interesting by the fact that it was reclaimed from a former industrial area of huge oil tanks and steamboat docks!


History and Nature!

Wonderful informative signage tells the fascinating story of this floodplain as well as it former glory days as a bustling freight center 



Steamboats and Heavy Industry


Yes - there are even a few remnants of the freighthouse...

Location

1899

Ya gotta love a town that showcases its history!!
