Review:
Covering just less than 11 acres, Riverbank Park is on the small side but it manages to pack in a remarkable amount of excellent recreational facilities. The park is located along the banks of the Passaic River, within the East Side section of the city, where it has been providing an essential green lung since 1910. There is a soccer field, a baseball diamond with a small covered grandstand, 2 tennis courts, basketball and a children’s playground. The playground is particularly popular, offering plenty of climbing equipment to keep young visitors busy for ages. There is also an outdoor gym area and paved paths for walking and jogging.
