It does look like the second property is not well suited for pond placement. The best places for ponds straddle the property lines. General consensus here is do NOT share a pond with a neighbor if you can help it.

Also on #2 I would be worried about being backed up to a park in that you will get a lot of "wanderers" onto your land, especially if you had an attractant like a pond.

IMHO land #1 is a much better piece to hold a pond, and as far as I can tell, you can put a pretty large one on there. At least an acre.
