Description
Williamsbridge Reservoir was a natural lake (despite its name) measuring 13.1 acres (53,000 m2) just south of Van Cortlandt Park in the Bronx, New York.[1] Specifically the body of water was located at 208th Street and Bainbridge Avenue.[2] It was shaped like a saucer[3] and was normally forty-one feet deep[1] Its water level dropped approximately fourteen feet in mid-August 1901.[4] On April 3, 1934 Commissioner of Water Supply, Gas and Electricity, Maurice P. Davidson, proposed that it be offered to Robert Moses to be used as a park site. The reservoir had ceased to be used after 1919
