MY4562 - D P Stevenson, Survey Disk - Boston, MA - U.S. Benchmarks on Waymarking.com

In Boston's Georges Island is this survey disk named, D P Stevenson, PID = 4562.

The mark is located on the east side of the island, on a flat grassy area on the top of Ft. Warren that dominates this island. Once on this top level, it is easy to spot. It is on a square concrete monument 10 inches square set in the middle of the grassy area, between two pits where recoiling cannons used to be installed. To the east is a great view of the Brewster Islands, which includes Boston Light. Of course, during this visit, there was fog, so I had no view.

The mark is a standard survey disk. The text is as follows:

Along the edge of the disk:
"U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey
Triangulation Station"

The rest are the usual statement about the disk being federal property and a fine for disturbing it.

At the center is a triangle with a dot.

The disk is is in good condition.
