Many believe that conditions in Cliffwood Beach are starting to improve, little by little. Now, visitors can see a new, improved sign and a new tot lot. n the 1970s, it was to drink beer, and in the 80s and 90s, it was to do drugs, Liegel said Continued on page 8 This recent photograph, taken at the Ross Field basketball courts in Cliffwood Beach s Veterans Park, shows the graffiti-covered sign that used to adorn the park. n the 1960s, guys would come here to sniff glue.
