The Yanticaw Park is an Essex County-owned park in Nutley, New Jersey. It is located between Centre Street and Chestnut Street, extending west to Passaic Avenue.

Essex County began purchasing land in 1911 for creation of the park. Wetlands in the park were drained, and a dam was set up to form a lake. The park was completed in 1914. In 1962, the lake, containing a small island was drained and a channel was dug as a continuation of the natural third river from the south.
