Highland Park Music Pavilion The Highland Park Music Pavilion was built around 1901. It was located west of Highland Boulevard, across from the reservoir, in what we used to refer to as "Upper" Highland Park. The Brooklyn Eagle reported the first concert was perfomed by the "Phil-Lyric" orchestra on June 8, 1901. I'm told it lasted into the 1950's, I don't have a date as to when it was removed.

It is unknown as to whether they were removed in the winter or were installed after the photo above. Why the interest in benches?

	So where was it located? I used Google Earth to try to mark an image identifying the location.
