Explore Central Park NY

February 15, 2018
Category: New York Attractions

Central Park is the most popular urban park in the country. Around forty million visitors set foot in the park every year. Spanning approximately eight hundred and forty-three acres, Central Park is a major landmark in the city of New York. Located in Manhattan, the park is bordered by 110th Street, Eighth Avenue, 59th Street and Fifth Avenue. The park has attained global popularity over the decades, primarily because of the various movies and television shows that have been filmed here. The park was a little smaller when it was originally designed by Frederick Law Olmsted through the late 1850s, but it was expanded soon after. The total area has remained unchanged since 1873. It is now a National Historic Landmark and a World Heritage site as recognized by UNESCO.
