Newburyport, MA – The Newburyport Bank Charitable Foundation has donated $40,000 for the Newburyport Market Landing Park Expansion project. These funds will be used for the purchase of site amenities for Newburyport's downtown central waterfront, as well as a bronze plaque of funding recognition by Newburyport Bank to be installed in the park.
Market Landing Park is the premier open space along Newburyport’s historic waterfront. The park is a thriving, elegant open space that extends public access to the waterfront boardwalk.
The landscape contains a forecourt and pedestrian ways that draw visitors from downtown to enjoy the park's broad, open lawns and sweeping riverfront views. A granite balustrade and stage platform at the boardwalk edge provide a picturesque setting for special events.
In commenting on the donation, Newburyport Bank CEO Lloyd L. Hamm noted, “Market Landing Park is a beautiful spot for all in the community to enjoy. So, when the park expansion project was announced, the Charitable Foundation was eager to support the initiative. The expansion of green space within our communities is essential to the wellbeing of all that live, work, and visit here, and the Market Landing Project does just that. We are extraordinarily proud to support this effort.”
