Geocache Description:

Cache is black magnetic nano. BYOP.

This cache is in the Southwest Corridor park near the Stony Brook stop on the Orange line. It is conveniently located near the Sam Adams brewery.

Jamaica Plain was once the site of a number of breweries, which took advantage of the Stony Brook aquifer. As the neighborhood developed, the Stony Brook was prone to flooding. By 1908, the brook was placed into a shallow culvert from Forest Hills to its present outlet in the Boston Fens. In the following years, the brook that once defined the industrial heart of Jamaica Plain was largely forgotten, until it was memorialized by the Stony Brook Orange Line station at Boylston Street.

The cache is a black magnetic nano. Foot traffic can be high, so be careful.
