Summary[edit]

Looking west toward the Lullwater Bridge (center middle ground) from the eastern shore of the Lullwater. Sunday, 7:00 AM EDT, August 13, 2006. Constructed in 1889, the Lullwater Bridge replaced the original oaken bridge designed by Calvert Vaux and documented in Stereoscopic views of Prospect Park, Brooklyn, New York, a part of the Robert Dennis Collection of Stereoscopic Views.

The Boathouse is to the left. Designed by Frank J. Helmle and Ulrich Huberty and constructed in 1904-05, it replaced an earlier rustic structure that had been situated on the north shore of the Lullwater and documented in William Merritt Chase's The Boat House, Prospect Park (1887). The Camperdown Elm is off-camera to the left, south of the Boathouse.
