Chestnut Hill Reservoir Map Art

$55.00

Located on the western edge of the City of Boston, the Chestnut Hill Reservoir borders both Newton, MA and Brookline, MA. Originally built to supply Boston with fresh drinking water in 1870, the reservoir was taken out of active service in 1978 when an aqueduct was built to connect Boston to water sources further west as part of the MWRA system. 

Fortunately for everyone, when one of the major aqueduct systems failed in May 2010, the Chestnut Hill Reservoir was available as a back-up water source, and water kept flowing in Boston!

Description

For this Paper Place the shape of the Chestnut Hill Reservoir is cut from a piece of heavy white card stock paper with the words “CHESTNUT HILL RESERVOIR” cut out below.

  • Choose from over 20 different background colors, as depicted in the swatches image, or a rainbow background made from scraps of 7 different colors.

  • The black frame is 8.75″ (about 22cm) square and 1.125″ (about 3cm) deep. It looks great as part of a gallery wall, and is small enough to fit in some of those weird corners and nooks, or on a bookshelf!

  • Each Paper Place is packaged carefully in recyclable materials, and packed for shipping in recyclable and/or reusable materials.

  • Abigail created Paper Places to celebrate the actual shape of the cities, towns, islands, bodies of water, and neighborhoods that shape our lives.

This frame was photographed without glass to ensure clarity, you will receive a frame complete with glass and your chosen artwork.
