I remember the lake with sloping banks before they concreted them to make them vertical. My Grandfather lived in Henry Nelson Street - I often visited them and walked down to the Marine Park to sail my yacht - Happy days

Nice picture, I was curious about the difference between a lake, Marine Park Lake, and what I would describe as a pond. Aparently a pond is shalower and sunlight can reach the bottom. Where as a lake has greater depth. So, which is correct is the Marine Park a lake or a pond ? Not that it really matters.
