West embankment of Highland Reservoir No. 2, south of Station 1. A man is visible at the top of the embankment on the far left. The reservoir was constructed between 1897 and 1903. Before construction began, the land around it had already been set aside for a public park; after the completion of the reservoir, it became Highland Park.
