So much to do here I'll just ramble off a list of what you can find here: walking and biking the miles of paths, tennis courts, grassy areas for solitude, a reflection park with landscaping and stone benches arranged in an oval, barbecue and picnic areas with built in stand up grills, picnic benches and a few covered large areas for entertaining large groups with nearby running water from a hand pump (check park website for availability but I believe it's first come first served for the covered picnic areas), TONS of parking all around the park for easy access, babbling brooks, cute bridges, a really nice man made pond with an island and best yet, BATHROOMS all over!

Happy hump day Adventurers!!! I've been coming to this area to park and read books under the trees…read morefor years! It's right near the Dunkin so you can just grab a cup and sit at the picnic table or gazebo. Over the summer I had left a bunch of books in the awnings of it. Thought it would be like a makeshift little library, but they spruced up the park in late summer and got rid of them. Guess that was frowned upon :( I'll try again but I highly recommend leaving books in these types of spaces. It has a nice little walking path that has various bench along it. This time of year is a really great way to see the leaves changing without having to go far. There are garbages signs please throw out what you have, I see sprinklings if trash on the path. The large boulder from what I know was dug up from Green Street when they were doing the sewerlines I think. I read that is was supposedly from the Paleozoic Era. Fun fact: this is one of the top PokemonGo hotspot. When it was super popular you saw so many people just standing around and meeting up. Now not so much but it's still pretty cool.

It is near a highway so maybe that is why people avoid it, but they have tennis, basket ball and roller rink courts. There is a nice grove of trees and a nice gazebo and fountain too. I use the tennis courts almost every weekend and they are hardly used and in decent shape. Only complaint is it could use a broom to clean leaves to be left there. There are also lights on the court at night for free and ample parking and clean bathroom facilities. Once you are done with a game you can head to wawa across the street!

They offer grounds for baseball, softball, soccer, and basketball. Seems that there are a lot of rec leagues playing here. Plenty of paved areas for walking/jogging. They have a fitness circuit too. Many different parking lots. It's sort of a sprawling park. The entrance is near the intersection of Florida Grove and 35.

TL;DR: "Park" is a bit of an exaggeration; this place is a merely a forest in the middle of…read moresuburbia that someone didn't want bulldozed. Established in 2000 to commemorate Metuchen's 100-year anniversary, the aptly named Centennial Park might be the largest natural open space in Metuchen, but during half a dozen visits I've never seen any locals here. (The only human footprint seems to be the occasional stray beer bottle.) Maybe it's because of the massive mosquito population or the poison ivy, but even animals seem to avoid this place. Centennial Park has one sparsely blazed trail and benches by each entrance, and can be accessed either via a set of stairs by the overpass on Grove Avenue or the dead-end on Highland Avenue. These seem to be all that Metuchen is willing to put forth into making a neglected 13-acre forest into a user-friendly park. I suspect that there are other reasons for the park designation: mitigating noise from passing trains, wildlife preservation, air pollution reduction, etc. The nearby Middlesex Greenway, Oakland Park, and Roosevelt Park (which is less than a mile away) all provide larger, cleaner, and safer alternatives for outdoor recreation.

The park isn't big but there's a decent area near the stage and there's also free parking across the street. I believe the NJ transit parking lot can also be used if needed. There are 2 chemical toilets as well. Unfortunately, a few years ago they built a condo near the park so the area looks very urban, there's no longer that park/forrest feeling but it's still a decent park for concerts and people seem to be friendly around this area.

The near vert ramp section is pretty dangerous there's a 2 foot deck that you will launch right off of so that can be a lot of fun, you can just fly over that and land on the bank but you need to be ready for that you know I'm saying. Overall I'd say you need to spend an entire day at this place to get comfortable unless you're just round wall all day every day. The local seem pretty young and pretty chill and pretty good at street skating.
