Cos Cob Park

Had a nice Afternoon here. Nice views of the Long Island Sound and a nice 9/11 Memorial

It’s an amazing park with river view. Can’t forget about 9/11 memorial. It’s really nice place to relax your mind set.

We find it interesting that you can go to so many different parks and in each you are transported to a completely different space. This power plant turned park is a good mix of views and practical park space, with a soccer field and a small playground but still an outdoor amphitheatre, walking paths by the ocean and a memorial to 9/11. The views of the Ocean are great even with the temperature only slightly above freezing we found it fun to hang out. The memorial is stunning and complex in the story the design tells. This is a great place to enjoy to Ocean or learn some history or both! Ok so it is time for our traveling scavenger hunt. See if you can find the places in the picture identified with Scavenger Hunt and leave us a comment.

This hidden gem has something for everyone! The park itself sits on the Cos Cob Harbor with views of some of the most beautiful mansions in Greenwich! Walking/Running Trails, wildflowers, sports fields, a large playground and a beautiful 9/11 tribute monument which depicts the names of the area residents that perished on that fateful day. Dogs are allowed in the park and there are multiple doggie cleanup stations installed throughout he park.

Although it's not a large park, what it does it does quite well. We were there on a beautiful afternoon so had great views of the 1%'s houses across the water. The park is clean and well tended. There's easy walking paths, a small playground, and a very moving memorial to those local citizens who died in the World Trade Center and the other targets of attack that awful day. Very well designed and interesting, not overwhelming for the size or situation of the place. A nice, quiet place all around.
