New park opens on City Island

A new park is open on the southern tip of City Island after a decade of work.

The new park at Belden Point is right next to a long-standing seafood restaurant.

For years, the space was just a dead-end in the street.

Then community members and local leaders pushed for the installation of a park a decade ago.

State Sen. Jeff Klein, who secured almost $500,000 for the project, says he's keeping an ear open for ideas on how to improve the new park.
