Pope John Paul II Park Reservation, officially the Saint Pope John Paul II Park,[1] and also known as Pope Park,[citation needed] is a 66-acre (27 ha) Massachusetts state park bordering the Neponset River in the Dorchester section of Boston. The park was reclaimed from the former site of a landfill and the Neponset Drive-In as part of the Lower Neponset River Master Plan and the development of the Neponset River Reservation.[2] The park is managed by the Department of Conservation and Recreation (DCR).[3]

DCR has restored a salt marsh area and planted native trees and shrubs. The area now attracts an increased variety of birds to the habitat, including snowy egrets and great blue herons.
