Mayor Steven M. Fulop joins City Council members, the Jersey City Parks Coalition, and community members to announce the expansion of the new community-driven Fairmount Square Park with the acquisition of an unsightly car storage lot to increase the size of the new neighborhood park in Bergen-Lafayette by 40%. Following the success of the City’s 2019.
The expanded park is expected to include an upgraded playground area and permanent infrastructure with new trees, plants, seating, restriped pedestrian crosswalks, fencing and a flag pole.

Jersey City officials broke ground on the expansion of Fairmount Triangle Park in Ward F launching a $200,000 park renovation.
The renovation aims to improve safe access while increasing outdoor recreational space.
The grant-funded project will transform two street segments that bisect existing green spaces – at the intersection of Fairmount and Summit avenues – to create an uninterrupted park.
