Kearny Riverbank Park
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Kearny Riverbank Park is a municipal linear park along the Passaic River in Kearny, New Jersey. It is located in the Kearny Uplands north of Bergen Avenue and was extended to Belleville Turnpike in 2011 with brownfield reclamation projects.[1][2][3] In 2012 improvements to the park's greenway were funded with a $1.8 million appropriation from the state.[4]
The reaches of the Passaic along the park have long been popular with rowing teams[5] The park is home to the boathouse used by Kearny, Belleville, and Nutley high school oarsmen.[3]
