LAKEWOOD – A project that would transform a popular park in Lakewood could break ground next spring.

The Lakewood Community Development Corporation says a state-of-the-art, all-inclusive playground, will be built in Hartley Park in spring 2022.


The playground will feature natural colors and several unique installations like a zipline, dual hill racing slides and a custom imaginative-play clubhouse.

Additionally, there will be new park walkways, stairs and ADA-accessible parking places.

The group plans to fund the $400,000 project through private donations and grants from local foundations.



Notably, over $125,000 has already been raised from private donors. Sponsorship or donation opportunities are posted at lcdcny.org.
