It's amazing what is being done to Nashawannuck pond, and I guess it's been long-overdue. Because it's man-made, sediment had built up and the danger is that it would become very shallow over time and eventually disappear. These workers, from Charter Environmental are putting some sort of compost material made out of cranberries (among other things) into the walls of the pond.
At a fundraiser for Mayor Mike last night (with Lieutenant Governor Tim Murray) at the Apollo Grill and a gentleman I met said there used to be a bridge between the pond and Nonotuck park and that as kids they would swim in the pond.
