Well,during the day,the park is cool but you dont want to be there once the sun is out, I mean the stree lights in the park are not working leaving everywhere dark and makes me feel uncomfortable. Asides the darkness issue,its a nice park to visit.

My daughter and I have waited for weeks for them to finish the updates to the park, and they did not disappoint. Since its one of 2 parks close to our house we find ourselves coming here more often now than the other park, although on the really hot days we visit the other one since they have sprinklers lol

VP is a beautiful, under utilized gem in the raw situated in a historic setting. With easy exceas to the Garden State Parkway, nestled between a recently built public school, and surrounded by residential housing, VP is currently being modernized through renovations thanks to the Essex County Park System. It is anticipated that community residents will be able to enjoy this overlooked jewel for the 2019 season with organized activities in a safe, secure and lively environment
