On Hillside Street, next to the Blue Hills Reservation Headquarters, and near the old mounted police horse stables, stands a stone structure that is the barracks to Station H-7 of the Massachusetts State Police.
The police patrol the Blue Hills Reservation roads and answer calls in the area. They also patrol the major highways of I-93/Route 128 from the I-93/Route 3 split to Milton. The police also serve the communities in the surrounding area.
This station was once part of the Metropolitan District Commission (MDC)Police in the Blue Hills District to patrol the area reservations held by the MDC. These operations were merged into the Massachusetts State Police in 1992.

I have had NO problems with taking photos of Police stations but please respect the fact that some services may be nervous about having their photo taken and inquire as to why... I have found that once things are explained they are more than happy to let me photograph the building, crest, chief... (they are people too!)
