The entrance to Untermyer Gardens, located in Yonkers, NY. The canal in the foreground is one of four in the garden. These four canals represent the ancient rivers found in Eden.

The Untermyer Gardens Conservancy has restored the 4 canals by replacing the copper lining and replacing the plumbing for the small fountain heads in each canal.
