Cooper's Poynt Park
For Camden, NJ
Group Melvin Design was hired to design a park and roadway network at the former site of Riverfront State Prison. The site is unique and special because of its proximity to downtown Camden, nearby waterfront attractions, and stunning views of the Ben Franklin Bridge and Philadelphia skyline.
The primary components of the park include: a unique, destination waterfront park that acts as a catalyst for redevelopment and revitalization in the immediate area; and a linear park connecting the new waterfront park to the North Camden neighborhood.
