Looks like the time when a park road went through the park to a turnaround before the woods. No bike path.

There are faint tire tracks to the left of it. I wonder if this could be Northmoor Park just north of EN Broadway. I used to live on Orchard Lane 30 years ago when the bike path first opened. Northmoor Pk was a grassy area along the river with a stone wall or revetment along the riverbank on the east side of the river which kept the park land from sloping down to the water’s edge. If you look closely at the photo, you can see the top of the stone wall there running from the left edge of the photo. Farther in the distance, the wall curves to the left and you can see the side of it. This perspective makes the river look very narrow here.
