Summary
Hudson County is set to pour over $12 million into parks and open spaces — the largest funding push in 21 years — to ensure every resident lives within a quarter mile of green space. From new parks in Secaucus to historic upgrades like Lincoln Park’s fountain, this investment prioritizes both neighborhood access and major park enhancements. Officials stress the vital role of parks in quality of life, especially for towns under budget strain, and the plan heads to commissioners for final approval in early September. Celebrating 20 years of its open space funding formula, the county has awarded over $124 million since the program began — turning parks, trails, and natural areas into community anchors for generations.
