The following coordinate fixes are needed for Charles River Reservation

42.36483,-71.13545

These coordinates match the address listed on the public website

https://www.mass.gov/locations/charles-river-reservation

1175A Soldiers Field Road, Boston, MA 02116

Which are also the location of the main parking area and the largest contiguous green space.

For regions like this, the best practive is usually to give coordinates that are near the center of the area, which may not correspond to the mailing address. This map shows that the reservation extends along both sides of the river, with its center roughly in the Anderson Bridge area, and I've tweaked the coordinates accordingly (also adjusting the Charles River Basin Historic District coordinates in the infobox, as well as the location maps).
