Question of the Day: The Allen Park Plan

What do you think of the plan and when do you expect it to take shape?

The Town of Oyster Bay unveiled an ambitious plan to expand and redevelop Ellsworth W. Allen Town Parklast week.

The roughly 500 people who attended the community meeting were shown a  proposal that would add a community center, five baseball fields, an additional all-purpose football/soccer/lacrosse field and green space to an area once classified as a hazardous waste Superfund site.

The only element missing from the proposed facility was any plan to build a community pool on the site.
