<p>They're traditionally had a problem with alcoholics congregating around benches which is really unpleasant for those on the 2nd floor who are effectively denied the amenity of their balconies on sunny days. Sounds like they've solved that problem, I wonder how?</p>

<p>It's open every day. The days Hugh referred to were the 'grand opening' days. They had guides etc, whereas usually presumably a bit quieter (though there are to be regular events taking place).<br/><br/><a href="http://www.woodberrywetlands.org.uk/" target="_blank">http://www.woodberrywetlands.org.uk/</a></p>

All the Years I used to knock around the Woodberry Downs, I never knew there was that much area covered with Water. What a Lovely place to take a young Family. All that Nature within the Harringay Area. Good luck to those who look after it. Eddie C. Ozzie

<p>Great pics! This afternoon, my wife and I took our two little 'uns, and my parents who were up for the day. Seems a very nice amenity, and when it's all bedded down it's going to be a very beautiful spot. Could do with a few more benches around the pathway though! One pity is that Thames Water didn't get the memo and do their bit by tidying up the New River Path leading up to the site.</p>

My wife and I took our newborn over yesterday and were blessed by the lovely sunshine which turned the reservoir into a great tranquil suntrap. The work they put in looks great and you can see that it will only evolve into a tremendously valuable landscape and wildlife haven for London. I can only hope that the ripple effect has positive benefits to the wider landscape areas. It makes sense for the rest of the New River to be cared for and make a positive landscape link to Finsbury Park.<br />

Great…

Great pics Hugh. So great to have Attenborough on our patch.
