The Cox Reservation, owned by the Essex County Greenbelt Association, consists of two parcels: a four-acre woodlot on nearby Lufkin Street and the 27 acres of upland, salt marsh, farmland with house and barn, and river frontage on Eastern Avenue. The views from the larger parcel east toward the salt marsh, the Essex River, the back of Crane Beach, and Castle Hill and Choate Island are magnificent. The Greenbelt headquarters and staff offices are located at the Cox Reservation, as well as many Greenbelt events throughout the year.
