The park is located at the corner of Maple and Voorheesville Avenue. The beautiful gardens are maintained by the Helderview Garden Club.The Gazebo was built by the local Kiwanis group and can be reserved for events.

The clock, donated by Huck and Josie Spaulding during the Village’s Centennial Celebration held in 1999, is surrounded by benches and tables and filled with personalized bricks for your viewing.

Hotaling Park is serves more as an area for reflection of those who have served their communities in military service. It is used for formal ceremonies, including a special program annually to honor the graduating senior class of the local high school.

Pine St Park, Pine Street

Located off Pine Street with frontage on Vly Creek and the Albany County Rail Trail this public land has been the focus of improvements in the last few years with DPW crews currently working with Albany County to create an ADA compliant switchback path from the Rail Trail to the pocket park.

Tork’s Hill, Altamont Road

This property is located across the street from the fire house on Altamont Road. Last year the Village invested in creating a parking area, which is used as an overflow lot for the school.  During the snow season the property is used by local communities as a sledding hill. There is more that is hoped for to develop this land further.

Scotch Pine Park, Scotch Pine Drive

Scotch Pine Park is an isolated ‘pocket park’ that serves as a playground and nature path. It is a quiet neighborhood park that offers a more intimate area for gatherings.
