Green Brook Park, Historical park in Plainfield and North Plainfield, United States.
Green Brook Park is a 100 acre green space along a stream that features meadows, forested areas, playgrounds, and sports facilities. The park has baseball fields, basketball courts, walking paths, and various areas for play and recreation.
The park was established in 1921 by the Union County Park Commission and designed by the Olmsted Brothers firm. This design firm was known for creating parks and shaped how this place looks and works.
The park shows design elements from late 19th and early 20th century architecture that reflect how people spent leisure time back then. Visitors can see how the green spaces and facilities were arranged for people to gather and enjoy themselves together.
There are several entrances on Clinton Avenue and West End Avenue where visitors can access the fields, courts, and paths. The park works best when you explore on foot or use the existing walking routes.
The park was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2004, which recognizes its importance as a landscape design worth preserving. This recognition protects the original layout and design for future visitors to experience.
