Ocean Avenue Details
Beauty can come in many forms, and the Ocean Avenue Recreation Area proves it. Once the site of an old landfill, the park is now grown and sculpted into a beautiful recreation area of woods, wetlands, and meadows. The 98 acres now have approximately two and a half miles of trails that are easily accessible, even by wheelchair. Most popular here though, besides the hilltop views, is the Quarry Run Dog Park where dogs can run wild and free for 10 acres.
