This master plan for the multi-phased regeneration, restoration and
renewal of Point Pleasant Park is based on a detailed understanding
of the site's geographic location, geomorphic characteristics, diverse
ecologies, and historic significance and is managed by principles of
natural forest succession. The proposal aims to develop a healthy, sustainable,
multi-aged forest system whose health and vigor are able to adapt to
impacts of disease, insect infestation, weather extremes and human use.
The process of successional evolution, not only for the forest and site
ecologies but for infrastructure and programming as well, will ensure
that the future configuration of the park will be well suited to its
environment. With managed forest succession a new park identity will
evolve.
