The Boathouse in Prospect Park, Oct. 2006

The Boathouse is the focal point for one of the most dramatic landscapes in the Park, with a lavish green canopy enclosing waterfalls, serpentine paths and carved bridges. With its elegant arches, decorative tiles and classical balcony, the design of this 1905 Beaux Arts structure was inspired by the architecture of a 16th century Venetian library.
In the early 20th century, boating along the serene surface of the Lullwater was a favorite pastime of Park visitors, and the Boathouse added to the natural beauty of the Park's watercourse. After undergoing years of much-needed restoration, it reopened in spring 2002 as host to the Prospect Park Audubon Center. The Camperdown Elm, made famous by poet Marianne Moore, is also located next to the Boathouse.
