Emerald View Park, created in 2005 and designated a regional park in 2007, has transformed significantly from its past. In the mid-1700s, Mount Washington was heavily mined for bituminous coal, earning it the name "Coal Hill." After years of neglect and illegal dumping, efforts began to restore the area. Today, the park offers winding trails, wooded hills, and scenic viewpoints, picnic areas, and historic sandstone steps and walls from the Depression era.
