History
The precipitous Gage Street Steps are among the most photographed stairways in Mount Auburn. At the summit, Jackson Hill Park once housed the Lookout House resort and German Park beside the upper depot of the Mount Auburn Incline. When the incline and resort were demolished around the turn of the century, the Jackson family operated a tree nursery at the site from 1909 to 1925, giving the hill its lasting nickname.
