Created in 1878 by damming the Middle Branch of the Croton River, it is one of twelve in the Croton Watershed. Middle Branch covers 400 acres (1.6 km²), with an average depth of 31 feet (9.4 m), although some areas in the reservoir's southern extent reach 50 feet (15 m). It drains an area of 21 square miles (55 km²) reaching into Dutchess County. At full capacity, it holds 4.1 billion gallons (6.4 million m³).[1] See also
