The newly renovated Watsessing Park is the fourth largest park in Essex County. Its name comes from the Lenni-Lenape Indian words for hill (Watschu) and stone (Assan). The tree-lined park, spread out between Bloomfield and East Orange, has three playgrounds, football, softball and soccer fields, basketball courts, a gazebo and a senior citizen recreation building. Winding paved pathways divide the park.
