The dam at Moody Street in Waltham creates the "Lakes
District", an extensive water area and flooded meadow. At Waltham
Center, Landry Park, with its fish ladder provides a pleasant open space
adjacent to the Charles River Museum of Industry. Upstream a new "river
walk" opens the river to Prospect Street for bicyclists and pedestrians.
The Lakes District offers excellent canoeing and winter ice fishing. Small
boats can be launched at Woerd Avenue
