Princeton Shoreline Access Improvements

Rustic viewing benches, custom-made by County Parks, were installed at Broadway in 2017.

Viewing benches at Broadway in 2017 (blog post), and beach access at Vassar in 2021 (blog post), were implemented by County Dept of Public Works (DPW) with funding requested by Supervisor Horsley. The planned wooden stairs at Columbia were not built due to the severe beach scouring that had occurred by Sept 2021.

DPW provides vegetation mowing as needed to maintain the harbor viewing area at end of Broadway.
