Improvements at Two Beloved Newark Parks Completed

Essex County has successfully completed extensive upgrades to Independence Park and Branch Brook Park in Newark, enhancing recreational opportunities for the community. At Independence Park, over $4.8 million was invested in projects that revitalized soccer and baseball/softball fields with synthetic grass, improved drainage, and added sports lighting and landscaping. County Executive Joseph DiVincenzo highlighted the park’s importance as a vital space for residents in Newark’s Ironbound neighborhood. Meanwhile, Branch Brook Park received modernized pathways, seating areas, and safety enhancements, especially at the newly dedicated Patricia Chambers Grove, honoring a former park advocate. These renovations were funded through state grants and the Essex County capital budget, demonstrating a commitment to revitalizing public spaces.
