BELMONT MCLEAN OPEN SPACE -MCCLEAN HOSPITAL LAND (PROJECT)

Belmont–McLean Open Space: The McLean Land Management Committee, organized within the Town of Belmont, has prepared a management plan for this 100+ acre conservation area. The area was protected via a Memorandum of Agreement between McLean Hospital and the Town of Belmont and adds significantly to the continuity of the Western Greenway.

Trail Connections: The McLean Conservation Land will provide trail connections to the historic Beaver Brook Reservation, Belmont’s Rock Meadow Conservation Area and Massachusetts Audubon’s Habitat Sanctuary. Replacement of a wooden bridge connecting the Rock Meadow Conservation Area with Beaver Brook North was accomplished by a cooperative volunteer effort of the volunteer organizations listed in the first section above. Materials were funded through a Recreational Trails Grant Program grant obtained by the Town of Belmont. A new trail from the Parkway to Walnut Street to connect with Lot 1 has been completed. Materials for the construction of a 560-foot boardwalk were funded by a Recreational Trails Program Grant obtained by NEMBA. NEMBA and the Friends of the Western Greenway coordinated the volunteer effort.
