Book Description
Excerpt from The First County Park System: A Complete History of the Inception and Development of the Essex County Parks of New Jersey Parks and playgrounds are commanding more and more attention. Their creation, care and maintenance have become one of the most important of municipal functions. The increasing interest of all classes in every urban com munity accentuates the movement toward better and healthier conditions in, and contiguous to, the centers of population. American literature on this subject has thus far mainly considered effects rather than causes; results instead of methods. In this volume, the intention of the author has been to correctly indicate, step by step, the moving forces and potential facts in the development of an extended and costly park system, one of the largest, and the initial county park system of this country.

Book Description
Branch Brook Park, located in Newark, was America's first county park. The park was established in 1895 as the cornerstone of the Essex County Park System. The vision for Branch Brook Park came in 1867, when Newark park commissioners retained Olmsted, Vaux, and Company to identify a site for a park in the city. That vision matured into a reality that is now, 140 years later, woven into the urban experience of Newark and its neighboring towns. The significance of Branch Brook Park has been nationally recognized with its placement on the New Jersey and National Registers of Historic Places. Home to the Newark Cherry Blossom Festival, organized long-distance runs and bicycle races, picnics, the Chrysanthemum Show, the New Jersey Symphony Under the Stars, boating on the lake, prom pictures, and sports activities from baseball to bocce to soccer and tennis, Branch Brook Park remains a constant source of great beauty.
