Secaucus Opens Newly Completed Laurel Hill Park

SECAUCUS, NJ — On Monday, the town of Secaucus, Hudson County and the Hudson County vo-tech school held a ribbon-cutting ceremony at the newly completed Laurel Hill Park.

The new park was designed by the vo-tech school and Neglia Engineering Associates, which began the project last winter. The park cost $1.3 million and is approximately three acres, and includes basketball courts, dual tennis/pickleball courts, an outdoor gym/fitness area, passive park path, and an additional open lawn area. It also offers parking for the public, and serves as a student pick-up/drop-off area.

The newly finished Laurel Hill Park is now open for use by students as well as the public.

The updated Laurel Hill park was built through a close collaboration between Hudson County, the town of Secaucus and the school district.

“Laurel Hill Park is a testament to the hard work of everyone involved in its conception and development,” said Secaucus Mayor Mike Gonnelli. “The town is committed to serving its residents, and this park will make a concrete impact on the quality of life for Hudson County vo-tech students and all of Secaucus.”
