Looking east, Reservoir Lane. is unseen around the corner. This photo is likely made of the just-completed widening of Boylston St. and the laying of trolley tracks in late 1900. Note that the supporting poles of the electric feed stop abruptly on the north side where the trolley tracks cease sharing the general roadway. The poles resume on the specially laid-out segregated section of track that goes up the hill.

The house is still standing today. The initial version of the house was built in 1806 by Nathaniel Ingersoll, one of several wealthy international-trade merchants who had houses in the immediate area. John Lowell Gardner purchased the house in 1842 and a number of additions were made over the years. This photo appears to be one of several taken circa 1864, each showing a slightly different configuration of family members.
