Edgemont Park Construction: Week 2

Crews proceeded with work at Edgemont Park as the construction effort entered its second week. 

On Wednesday, a large portion of the northern field could be seen tilled and gravel laid where construction crews will enter the park. 

You can see the progress of the work above in the photo gallery. Check back for weekly updates as Montclair Patch follows the construction. 

According to the township, the water-lowering permit for the construction is in place and the township is now awaiting permits to remove and relocate the fish to Verona Pond. Once the permits have been received, the pond will be lowered and construction work can begin dredging the pond and building a new retaining wall around it. 

Work at the park began on March 4. Photos from the first week of construction can be seen by clicking here. 

The township council approved the project in January, which came with an approximate $800,000 price tag.
