Central Park $19.79 Harper`s Weekly reported in 1857 that no engineer had yet been able to present a feasible plan for Central Park and that "it may not ever happen." Their pessimism was misplaced, as Frederick Law Olmsted and Calvert Vaux`s Greensward Plan was approved in May 1858. By 1860, visitors were enjoying the magnificent new park`s naturalistic splendor. Central Park quickly became one of New York`s premier attractions, featuring the menagerie, the mall, Bethesda Fountain, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the music pavilion, the casino, and the original Croton Reservoir. The northern section of the park was more reminiscent of an untamed wilderness than of an urban park. Through historic postcards, Central Park highlights this man-made green oasis at the center of a teeming metropolis. |

Central Park Then & Now (Book) $12.86 Arguably one of the best-known and most-visited urban parks in the world, Central Park was originally created to provide an open space for Manhattan`s booming population to escape the noise and pollution of the busy city. Today, you`ll still find New Yorkers (and millions of tourists!) languishing on the Park`s lush lawns, jogging along its paths, skating on Wollman Pond, or riding the historic carousel. Visit this amazing park and its remarkable history in Central Park Then and Now. % Officially completed in 1873, Central Park is filled with man-made lakes, ponds, winding paths, pavilions, and attractive buildings. As the photographs show, many structures–including an old elevated railway–were removed to make room for the new park % Compare the old Central Park Menagerie to the modern Central Park Zoo. In its early days, the park received many exotic animals as gifts and the Menagerie began to grow. A zoo building was designed to house the animals in 1934 % Come rub Balto`s nose! This hero sled dog has achieved a polished golden appearance as generations of children have come to rub his nose for luck % Although New York moves at a breakneck pace, inside Central Park time seems to stand still. The clothing may look different, but kids still play with sailboats at the boating lake, lovers still go for rides on Carriage Drive, and families still toboggan on the park`s rolling hills |
