History

Shakespeare in the Park at Reservoir Park

The original portion of the park dates to 1845. In 1872, a reservoir for the City of Harrisburg was built in an undeveloped area outside the city limits, then called Prospect Hill (now Allison Hill). City leaders recognized the spot as a wonderful vantage point to view the State Capitol, the Susquehanna River valley and the Blue Mountains and, in 1890, officially established the area around the reservoir as a park.[4] The park is the highest point in the city. It contains one underground thirty million gallon reservoir, and two 6 million gallon above ground reservoirs, which gravity-feed freshwater to the city's water system.[5]
