Kirkside Park


Total Votes: 11 / Interest: 445

just behind the majestic gothic-style Gould Church on Roxbury’s Main Street lies a stretch of green gracing both sides of the East Branch of the Delaware River. Known as Kirkside Park, this 11-acre treasure is rich in natural beauty and plays an integral part in Roxbury’s wonderful history.

The park remains a vital center of activity, enlivened by soccer games, concerts, outdoor theater, fishing, hiking, cross-country skiing and picnicking. For more than a decade, the cries of cheering fans and baseball players dressed in 1898 uniforms were heard when the Roxbury Nine reclaimed the fields where its original games were played.

As summer dawns and Kirkside Park comes to life, perhaps the spirit of a generous and lovely lady will also return and caress the place she called home and happily find it adopted by a community she loved.

Space in Kirkside Park is available for weddings, family gatherings, and special occasions. For more information contact Carolynn Faraci at 607-326-3722.
