         Wrong.  The worst water quality is the Loring Park Lake (or pond), 
according to the last report on this.

Nokomis was 2nd worst, and Hiawatha was third worst, I believe.  This may 
have changed now, with the "Blue Waters Initative" changes to the watershed.

In general, the water quality seems to be directly related to the size and 
depth of the lake.  Loring pond is very small & shallow, so it's usually 
worst.  Nokomis is very shallow (really, just a dredged slough) so it's 
often bar, too.
