About the Location

Waterfront Escape

Found in Stamford's Harbor Point development, Harbor Point Commons Park offers a refreshing waterfront retreat from the daily grind. The scenic boardwalk hugs the edge of Stamford Harbor, where you can soak in breathtaking views of Long Island Sound and watch boats bobbing in the marina.

What was once an industrial zone has been thoughtfully transformed into this public space as part of an urban renewal project, creating an excellent spot for your morning jog, afternoon stroll, or simply unwinding by the water.

Features You'll Love

The well-maintained walking paths wind along the water's edge, with plenty of seating areas to pause and enjoy the maritime vibes. Need a moment of joy? Try out the interactive swings along the waterfront - they're not just for kids, and there's something undeniably uplifting about swinging with a water view.

The park functions as the heart of the Harbor Point community, opening up waterfront access to everyone and creating a natural gathering spot. And yes, there are clean public restrooms available - always a practical plus for any extended visit.

Bring your four-legged friends along! This dog-friendly space has designated areas where pups can enjoy the fresh air and interesting smells. You'll spot plenty of locals walking their dogs along the boardwalk throughout the day.

Unwind Your Way

Families will appreciate the multiple playgrounds scattered throughout the area, giving little ones plenty of space to burn off energy. The open spaces are fantastic for whatever relaxation looks like to you - whether that's a morning yoga session, diving into a good book, or simply sitting quietly by the water.

For those who enjoy longer walks, the park connects seamlessly to nearby Kosciuszko Park, extending your waterfront journey. The meticulously maintained grounds create a peaceful environment that feels removed from city life, despite being right in Stamford.

Year-Round Appeal

The park comes alive all year long with community events that add to its charm. Depending on when you visit, you might encounter seasonal festivals, outdoor fitness classes with harbor views, or bustling farmers markets offering local goods.

The thoughtful, open design makes this waterfront retreat ideal for community gatherings regardless of the season. After exploring the park, you'll come across several restaurants and cafes nearby - ideal for grabbing a bite while you continue to enjoy the harbor atmosphere.
