Formerly called both "Linear" and "Mill Pond" Park, this attractive
two-acre park situated across from Hathorn Park between Park Street and Mill Pond was named
for Dr. Ernest W. Stein, M.D., a long-time prominent physician in town. The park was created
when several dilapidated buildings were removed during the urban renewal effort of the early
1970's. The park features attractive trees, walkways, and benches, with flowers planted,
watered and weeded by the Pittsfield
Garden Club. It provides a picturesque and tranquil view of Mill Pond from Park Street, a
major thoroughfare adjacent to Main Street.
