Paulus Hook Parks Conservancy Survey

CONNECT THE PARKS
PAULUS HOOK PARKS CONSERVANCY SURVEY
SPONSORED BY HISTORIC PAULUS HOOK ASSOCIATION (HPHA)

A group of civic-minded Jersey City residents is forming a not-for-profit organization whose goal is to restore, manage and preserve the parks in Paulus Hook, in downtown Jersey City. Because of the severe erosion that threatens it, the first on the list is what is commonly referred to as Peninsula Park. In coordination with the Historic Paulus Hook Association, we are requesting community input as part of a preliminary park design effort. The parkland in wraps around the Morris Canal, and includes the foot of Washington Street. Please take a few minutes to complete this survey.

In order for your voice to be heard, we respectfully request that you indicate your name and address below, and optionally, phone and email contact information. This information will not be disclosed to third parties outside the Paulus Hook Parks Conservancy, nor will it be used for future solicitations unless specifically requested.
