Jenks Park

Located at the corner of 602 Broad Street & Washington Street

Built in 1890, it sits on 4.5 acres and is home to Cogswell Tower, Central Falls' most prominent feature. This "city beautiful"  park provides both active and passive recreation and scenic views of the surrounding landscape from Cogswell Tower. 

 Jenks Park is getting a HUGE upgrade! 

From a new, expanded playground, to new café tables and seating for families, to significant landscaping improvements, new sidewalks, and more, the first phase of upgrades to our historical park – a symbol of Central Falls – will create an incredible outdoor space for all to enjoy in our city. Renovations will begin on September 11, 2023.The lower section of the park that includes the playground (Washington and Fletcher Street access points) will be temporarily closed during these significant upgrades. The rest of Jenks Park will remain accessible. The historic Cogswell Tower will see amazing upgrades in the next phase of renovations, beginning next year 2024, and plans for upgrades to the rest of the park are already underway.
