The history of High Point State Park, a stunning landmark in New Jersey, is intricately linked to the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC). Established in 1923 as a gift from Colonel Anthony and Susie Kuser, the park features designs by the renowned Olmsted Brothers. The CCC played a crucial role in shaping the park from 1933 to 1941, implementing many original proposals and creating lasting structures that continue to enhance the visitor experience today. This exploration highlights the park's significance and the legacy of the CCC in its development.
