Between 1821 and 1855, New York City’s population nearly quadrupled. As the city expanded northward up Manhattan, people were drawn to the few existing open spaces, mainly cemeteries, for passive recreation. These were seen as escapes from the noise and chaotic life in the city, which at the time was almost entirely centered on Lower Manhattan. The creation of a large park in the heart of the island was first proposed in the 1840s, and approved in 1853. In 1858 landscape architects Frederick Law Olmsted and Calvert Vaux won a design competition for the park with their Greensward Plan.” Construction began that same year, and the park was completed in 1876. After a period of decline in the early 20th Century, New York City parks commissioner Robert Moses started a program to clean up Central Park in the 1930s. The Central Park Conservancy, created in 1980 to combat further deterioration in the late 20th century, refurbished many parts of the park in ongoing projects since then. The park’s main attractions include the Ramble and Lake, Hallett Nature Sanctuary, the Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis Reservoir, and Sheep Meadow. There are also amusement attractions such as Wollman Rink, Central Park Carousel, and the Central Park Zoo, and formal spaces such as the Central Park Mall, Bethesda Terrace, and the Delacorte Theater. The park has five visitor centers: Charles A. Dana Discovery Center, Belvedere Castle, Chess & Checkers House, the Dairy, and Columbus Circle. There are numerous ways to enter the park, as well as places to eat like Tavern on the Green and daily events both private and public that are sponsored by the city as well as various corporations. The biologically diverse ecosystem has several hundred species of flora and fauna. Recreational activities include carriage-horse and bicycle tours, bicycling, sports facilities, and concerts and events such as Shakespeare in the Park. Central Park is traversed by a system of roads and walkways and is served by public transportation. Its size and cultural position as the first landscaped park in the United States made it a model for the rest of the world’s urban parks going forward, and its influence earned Central Park the designations of National Historic Landmark in 1963 and of New York City Scenic Landmark in 1974. Central Park is owned by the New York City Department of Parks and Recreation but has been managed by the Central Park Conservancy since 1998, under a contract with the municipal government in a public/private partnership. It is the most visited urban park in the United States, with an estimated 42 million visitors annually as of 2016, and also one of the most filmed locations in the world.
