Friends of Morris Parks JC

Neighborhood Park Survey

Welcome to our Downtown Park Survey! The Friends of Morris Parks JC is a all-volunteer non-profit dedicated to taking care of the Morris Square and Morris Canal Park in downtown Liberty Harbor/Paulus Hook.

Help us make these parks a beacon for families with the greenery and activities that make Paulus Hook and Liberty Harbor the best place to live in Jersey City.

We have a vision to upgrade these parks to better serve our community needs.

Please provide your thoughts by taking this brief survey! It will take less than 5 minutes!
