Beautification

Officials are looking for feedback regarding a massive undertaking that will open an additional 234 acres of greenery to the public.

As everyone knows, Jersey City is on the move. There are skyscrapers going up seemingly everywhere, cool restaurants, neat stores, pop-up beer gardens and more. This is especially true in Bergen-Lafayette. While we don’t quite have the infrastructure and shiny things, our advantage is that almost everywhere can be beautified and refurbished. All that it takes is someone that cares, a little funding and a lot of elbow grease.

A $40 million project that’s been planned for over a decade will reestablish greenery in the park’s interior, adding pathways, bridges, and other amenities to the landscape.
