One of the well-maintained parts of the city of Bridgeport, the Harwood Park is located in the center of the city. Spread over an extensive area of 8.3 acres (3.36 hectares), this park is a necessary recreational venue for the city folks, and has underwent renovations in 2007 to include additions like picnic pavilions, playgrounds, a swimming pool, and barbecue grills. The park also plays host to some major community events. See the website to know more.
