Online survey and community meeting for Hoboken Northwest resiliency park announced

HOBOKEN — Residents are invited to complete an online survey to provide feedback on two proposed design concepts for the Northwest Resiliency Park at www.hobokennj.gov/nwparksurvey.
On Feb. 27 community members joined the project team at the Wallace School to review the two design alternatives developed for the Northwest Resiliency Park. The presentation, video of the meeting, and more information on the two design alternatives are available at www.hobokennj.gov/nwpark.
After compiling community feedback from the meeting and survey, the project team will host another community meeting to discuss the preferred design alternative on Tuesday, March 27. The community meeting will be from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. at the Wallace School Cafeteria, located at 1100 Willow Ave.
The Northwest Resiliency Park will be Hoboken’s largest park and will provide recreation and public space for our community. It will also be a part of Hoboken’s resiliency strategy by integrating green infrastructure and innovative stormwater management measures to mitigate flooding from rainfall events.
In 2017, the City of Hoboken opened a temporary pop-up park at the site which will remain in place during the design process for the permanent park. The park is located between Adams Street, Madison Street, Twelfth Street, and Thirteenth Street.
