Boccuzzi Park
We know you’ve got a park for a front yard, but if you ever want to try somewhere new, try Boccuzzi Park! Located in the Waterside neighborhood of Stamford, at 200 Southfield Ave, Boccuzzi Park is a 12-acre coastal park that includes a playground, softball field, basketball court, two tennis courts, a beach, and a marina. In 2011, Southfield Park was renamed after John Boccuzzi, a longtime Waterside resident and member of the Board of Representatives for more than 40 years.
With brilliant views, gorgeous sunsets, acres of green, and an accessible dock with boats floating by… we think it’s definitely worth a visit!
