In the late 70s Ewing Park was developed on property running along Hollowbrook Drive.  Colonel Edward Harris led a drive to get a HUD grant to build the Hollowbrook Community Center on the site.   This was privately organized by local area residents.  The rest of the park development was funded by Green Acres.   The property was turned over to the Township around 1989 because of funding issues.
