The Bog Brook Reservoir is a small reservoir in the Croton Watershed in southern New York State. It is located in the town of Southeast, New York in Putnam County, and is approximately 38 miles (over 60 kilometres) north of New York City, which it supplies water to. It was formed by the damming of Bog Brook, a small tributary of the East Branch of the Croton River, which is in turn a tributary of the Croton River. This reservoir was put into service in 1892, making it one of the older reservoirs in New York City's water supply system.
