Watsessing Park,

Conger Street, Bloomfield, NJ 07003

"My boy loved this playground. Unique features, many spinning items and handicapped friendly accessories. The non playground was pretty large and filled with trees with a cool secret feeling passage that goes under the rail bridge and opens to a big open field. Pretty cool"

"It's a nice park for children to play. Upkeep & cleanliness need improvement"

"I haven't taken a walk in Watsessing Park for several years, and I must say Essex county does a nice job with maintaining the area. The playground area for children is very nice, and walking area around the circumference of the park is pretty level/smooth."

"8/9/22: Signs need to posted regarding mopeds and motorcycles riding in the park. There are several people who ride their motorcycles through the park during the late afternoons and evenings. 7/3/22: I have noticed the playground is open at night.The playground is not lit and absolutely black. Children are in the playground which can be a safety hazard. I have witnessed adults and teens hanging out at the benches and inside the playground smoking weed and drinking. I guess when someone is injured and files a lawsuit something will be done. 6/7/2022: Park would be much nicer if all visitors cleaned up after themselves. Cans, bottles, dirty diapers and other garbage laying in the grass within feet of a trash receptacles. Police presence needs to more visible in the park, especially after schools let out and in the evenings. Overall, a very nice park. Safe neighborhood. Family oriented. Nice park for jogging, walking, reading and relaxing. Children's playground has very nice renovations. Playing fields for softball, soccer and football. Walking distance from nearby restaurants, Accessible to Bloomfield Ave, Broad Street, Bloomfield College, Bloomfield Lackawana Station, NJ Transit bus lines, 11, 28, 29, 34, 72, 94, GO28 and the Parkway north and south and Bloomfield Police station is across the street"
