  • West Essex Trail to Eagle Rock Reservation
    Official Guide to the Lenape Trail available at www.LenapeTrail.org Map 4 West Essex Trail to Eagle Rock Reservation From Bowden Road, the Lenape Trail continues along the route of the West Essex Trail before turning right onto a footpath into Cedar Grove Park. After crossing Fairview Avenue, it follows paved paths and turn turns onto footpaths into Hilltop Reservation, where the yellow blazes should be followed carefully to avoid turning onto other trails. The Lenape Trail continues along a mix of footpaths and old woods roads to reach the Verona Community Center, where it continues along road sidewalk to reach Verona Park. It follows sidewalk within Verona Park, and then road sidewalks and roadwalks are followed to reach the northern end of Eagle Rock Reservation. Points of Interest: West Essex Trail: The West Essex Trail is situated on the former Caldwell Branch of the old Erie- Lackawanna Railroad. Acquired in 1985 through Green Acre funding, the 2.84-mile trail runs from Arnold Way in Verona northeast to the Passaic County line. Robert O'Toole Community Center: The Robert J. O’Toole Community Center, within the 77-acre Essex County Cedar Grove Park, was named for Robert O’Toole, the township’s retired three-term mayor. The park was developed on the site of the 121-year-old Essex County Hospital Center, also known as the Overbrook Asylum. Adjacent to the community center are four bocce courts and a playground designed with a farming theme in recognition of the site’s history that included a farm to support the hospital.

  • Final ERI Draft
    Deptford Township Environmental Resource Inventory DRAFT April 2010 The Delaware Valley Regional Planning Commission is dedicated to uniting the region’s elected officials, planning professionals and the public with the common vision of making a great region even greater. Shaping the way we live, work and play, DVRPC builds consensus on improving transportation, promoting smart growth, protecting the environment, and enhancing the economy. We serve a diverse region of nine counties: Bucks, Chester, Delaware, Montgomery and Philadelphia in Pennsylvania; and Burlington, Camden, Gloucester and Mercer in New Jersey. DVRPC is the official Metropolitan Planning Organization for the Greater Philadelphia Region — leading the way to a better future. The symbol in our logo is adapted from the official DVRPC seal, and is designed as a stylized image of the Delaware Valley. The circular shape symbolizes the region as a whole. The diagonal line represents the Delaware River and the two adjoining crescents represent the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and the State of New Jersey. DVRPC is funded by a variety of funding sources including federal grants from the U.S. Department of Transportation’s Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and Federal Transit Administration (FTA), the Pennsylvania and New Jersey departments of transportation, as well as by DVRPC’s state and local member governments. The authors, however, are solely responsible for the findings and conclusions herein, which may not represent the official views or policies of the funding agencies. DVRPC fully complies with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and related statutes and regulations in all programs and activities.
