Description: Photo of the original lock for the Charles River in Boston as bordered by Nashua Street Park on the south and Charles Hayden Planetarium to the north and positioned just west of the Charles River Dam Bridge. The old lock on the Charles River allowed boat access from the Charles River to Boston Harbor. Lock services subsequently were relocated about a quarter mile east to the Charles River Dam and incorporated as three parallel locks on the site of the old Warren Bridge. The photo is a view looking upstream.
