Cutler Park is a state-owned nature preserve and public recreation area that lies between Route 128/I-95 and the Charles River in Needham, Massachusetts.

[5] Along the west side of Kendrick Pond remains the imprint where soil was removed in the 19th century to fill the area now known as the Back Bay in Boston.

The large marsh in the park is not natural, but rather was created by flooding from the Silk Mill Dam in Newton Upper Falls in the 1890s.

These wet areas were used in the past for wells and irrigation, and remains of filter ponds, ditches, and water systems are still present.

[6] A railroad line, used primarily by the MBTA Commuter Rail, runs roughly east–west on a raised right-of-way through the southern half of the park.
