In case you’ve missed, they’ve been turning over some dirt along Beauchamp Blvd. We noticed the back side of the sign on the side of the street, so I looked at the other side to see the message.<\/p>\n

It will be an 8.5-acre park, complete with a splash pad, playground equipment, walking paths and plenty of parking for those visiting the park.<\/p>\n

The way I see it, this development — which is slated to be done by the spring of 2023 — only boosts our homes’ value. Not that it matters to my wife and me, as our home will be ours, um, forever.<\/p>\n

Land for the park came as a gift to Princeton from the family of JJ (Book) Wilson, for whom the park will be named. Think of how cool that is, with the city receiving land as a gift, allowing the city to spend its money (our money, truth be told) on a tangible benefit for the city it serves.<\/p>\n

Park space and green space is a marvelous use of that land.<\/p>\n

We are thrilled in our house to see this park on its way, as it is within easy walking distance from our home.<\/p>\n

It’s just another reason to make us glad we settled in Princeton.<\/p>\n
