Sightseeing

Decided to check out the tower early morning after work. Tower’s located at the top of a hill with a pretty nice view. Unless you’re a jogger, there really isn’t much else there. It was nice seeing it in person. View of the city of Worcester looking south is nice, too.

    Cute place to take pictures!
    Nestled in a residential area, the tower is a scenic place on top a hill overlooking the rest of Worcester. The view is quite nice, especially in the fall! There is adequate parking too. However there’s not much to do besides taking a couple pictures and admiring the view. You can’t go up the tower because it is locked, but it’s free to come here so I understand that it can’t be opened. Also in the forests nearby, I’m pretty sure some people were smoking marijuana.

    Pretty area
    Pretty area with a nice view. We didn’t find any child friendly trails. There also isn’t any bathrooms or port a potty. Another site had said this is family friendly. I always think of family friendly as having a bathroom.
