Vale Terrace Drive goes through a cluster of ponds.
I'm uncertain of the number - although this map shows 3
there are up to 6 here, depending on the season and weather.

The ponds are only partially visible from the road

POND 1
POND 2
This pond has an obvious duckweed or algae problem!

A year after I wrote the first version of this page, the Vale Terrace Pond #2 house was for sale.
We went to have a look. It was new, but not appealing.
I took some photos of the pond from the house:
POND 3
The trees around this pond BADLY need trimming and lots of them are dead.
The pond is now surrounded by a stout steel fence,
no doubt because there is a Jr High School a block away.
