As one of the two public parks in West Carteret, Cornell Park stands proud. And now, it can stand a little prouder: after $327,000 worth of upgrades to the outdoor space, Cornell Park now has a new basketball court, and new surfacing and backboards for the existing court, along with new fencing and sidewalks and paving of the road alongside the park.
Part of a municipal effort to revitalize parks in Carteret, the renovations began in April 2014 and were completed this past October. As Council President Susan Naples explains, “A good network of local parks means evolving with the interests and needs of our residents, as well as the borough’s continuing growth.”
