West Hudson Park is a haven of open space in the western part of Hudson County. The park itself dates as far back as 1888. However, Hudson County’s bond purchase for the land was not approved until November 1902 and addi­tional construction began on June 15, 1910.  The park combines fun, active space with natural, passive space in the towns of Harrison and Kearny. Its 46 acres has a rich history as a natural area and place of relaxation in Hudson County. The park is home to various sports facilities for athletes, scenic bridges, winding pathways, and a beautiful lake.
