Outstanding (and rare) 2.1-mile rubberized running track around Weequahic Lake, plus 400m running track in excellent condition, top-notch lighted artificial football/soccer field, several baseball & softball diamonds in excellent condition, and recently renovated recreation center.

Surprisingly abundant wildlife, including ducks, geese, blue herons, snowy egrets, raccoons, squirrels, opossums, skunks, groundhogs, chipmunks, foxes, deer, and large fish (not sure what species). Quite amazing, actually.

Only downsides are:

1. Not enough trash & recycling bins around entire length of 2.1-mile running track. Track, surrounding woods, and lake itself are often littered with discarded plastic bottles & trash. Would help to post signs at regular intervals encouraging visitors to dispose of trash & recyclable materials properly, then make it easy for them to do so.

2. Paved roads through park are in varied condition (some smooth, some rough and rutted with potholes and stones). Shame that only some park roads were paved a few years ago. Smooth pavement everywhere would make it safe to inline skate and cycle throughout the park, do loops, etc.
