A Place For All To Enjoy

Guadagnino envisions new, more modern attractions: a dog park, a skate park, a great lawn with a band shell, maybe even reopening the mini-golf course. “There’s a lot of history with this place, and a lot of people want to keep that history alive,” he said. “Imagine if they knocked down Seaside Heights … there’s a lot of attachment to it.”

And so it is that Pleasureland and Muller’s Park again become a place for all to enjoy, in a new design. Read about the vision that has become reality – and go enjoy a quiet walk along the river one of these days.  I plan to do just that in a couple of weeks!   ~ Debbie

Park Trails Named

Update from Mike G:

See the map below – all the park trails are officially named!  Most of the paths are named after the Pleasureland owners’ families.  The one exception is Parete Path, which is named after Carmine Parete, one of the names we voted upon during the park naming contest.
NOTE: Carmine’s name is spelled wrong on this diagram but was corrected for the record and will be posted correctly on the park trail signs.
This is only the start.  As the park develops there will be more honors and more things named after people, events etc.  Stay up to date here or on facebook as we continue shaping the park…
