It's not as famous as Mt. Washington, and you don't get to ride the Inclines up here. But the view of downtown is expansive, and the neighborhood is charming. We spent July 4 evening here mingling with the park's friendly, chatty, neighbors, their kids and dogs in tow. Also more than a few photographers with their tripods and giant DSLRs, who were also happy to trade tips on how to shoot fireworks.
Fireworks tip: get here a couple hours early to stake out a good spot!
