The Doyle Reservation, located in the city of Leominster, Massachusetts, is a landscaped urban park and open space reservation managed by The Trustees of Reservations (TTOR), a non-profit conservation organization. It is also the location of TTOR's Doyle Center: a conservation education center, regional office, and green building initiative. The property consists of three main areas: ''Pierce Meadow'', a landscaped urban park and former estate of Harry W. Pierce; the ''Doyle Center'' grounds, buildings, and adjoining woodlots; and a hay field and adjoining wetland. The Doyle Community Park was acquired as a gift of Louise I. Doyle in 1981. Additional lands were acquired in six purchases from 1991 to 2001. Reservation parking lots are located on Lindell Avenue. The property is open to walking, cross country skiing, picnicing, nature study, and dog walking. There are 3.5 miles of walking trails throughout the reservation. ==Pierce Meadow== Pierce Meadow was formerly part of a private estate belonging to Harry W. Pierce circa 1900. Pierce's estate once featured "a twenty-nine-room stucco mansion with a ballroom and conservatory, a matching stable, extensive horse paddocks, Pierce Pond, and an extensive system of bridle paths through woodland and around the pond." of Pierce's estate have been restored as a community park; the pond and bridle paths are not part of the current reservation. Trees and shrubs on the property are part of the estate's original plantings.
