The Loch is the stream that bisects the Central
Park Ravine with the Wildflower Meadow on
one
side and the North Woods on the other.
Starting at the northeast edge of the Pool where the First Cascade pours waters over
a rocky incline into its narrow bed it meanders
beneath the Glen Span Arch through the
valley to the Huddlestone Arch where it
abruply ends. Once feeding waters into
the Harlem Meer its natural flow was rudely
terminated by the construction of the Lasker Pool an act that truly contaminated
the wonderful rustic magnificence of this
area of the Park.
