A panorama of the David Bradford mini-park at 53 Pine St in Princeton, NJ taken in 2023.

The David Bradford Park in Princeton is a small, fenced park located at 53 Pine St. No dogs are allowed. Containing only a bench, a picnic table, and a few toys for toddlers, this mini-park is half a block away from Small World coffee. Formerly known as Pine Street Park, it was renamed for David Bradford, an economics professor at Princeton who had lived on Pine St.[1], after his family made a grant for the park's improvement. The park is one of several "mini-parks" maintained by the Recreation Department.[2]
