Mount Prospect Park, located at the dead end of Harrington Road, is one of the more popular parks in the city of Clifton. It has, not only the standard features that one would expect to see in a park, jungle gym, swings, etc cetera, but also a full court basketball court, and three large baseball/softball fields. It is host to Clifton Central Little League, a very successful league. In addition, one of the iconic parts of the landscape at this park, and always a memorable talking point, is the 120 "steps" leading from the park's western end up to Mount Prospect Avenue.

PSA: Please Do NOT waste your $ signing your child up for this baseball league! Not only do they charge outrageous fees to play but they do not run any practices. Maybe one practice a month! If that at all! Never are consistent with coaches who can commit. The kids are always disappointed when they lose and expect to lose because they don’t get in any real practice. Then during games the coaches feel that is the best time to correct them by yelling at them when they have no idea what they’re doing wrong because they don’t practice. About $180 to play all but 1.5 months if that! When games get canceled due to weather they are rarely rescheduled accordingly. This organization just takes your money and then does nothing with your children to teach them the game. There’s only so much you can teach your child without having the team to practice. 2 people all you can do is play catch. This is a terrible organization. Oh and have you noticed there isn’t any winners flags hung up around huh wonder why? Please just take your child and go some where else where they will be taken seriously and the game of baseball for that matter. Don’t believe me, sign your child up and you will see. I’ve given this organization multiple chances for the last 3 seasons and I will not be any further. Basically paying $180 for the damn uniform which is only a shirt, hat and pants and then your child is expected to just show up to games and perform well….? How does that make any sense? And then you expect them to win at that? Please save your money or use it to actually invest in your child’s baseball potential. Just not here. Respectfully disappointed. The park itself is actually nice but aside from that the CLIFTON LITTLE LEAGUE organization is awful. Have a great day!

It's perfect for spending some time alone and exercising.

Nice area to walk or run. Has many picnic beaches which are much appreciated! Maintained beautifully and super clean.

The space itself is beautiful. It's the level of disrespect people show the park that I dislike the most. Trash everywhere. I hope those in City Council might give this park some love. The Allwood Section where this park is located has been gradually growing and improving, with many friendly families moving in. It would be nice to have the park cleaned up a bit and the play equipment updated.
