CENTRAL PARK is 840 acres and the largest park in Manhattan, New York City; bordered by 59th St. on the south, Fifth Ave. on the east, 110th St. on the north, and Central Park West on the west.

The land was acquired by the city in 1856 and was built according to the plans of U.S. landscape architects Frederick L. Olmsted and Calvert Vaux. It took twenty years to implement the construction plans. The park has rolling terrain with lakes and ponds, greeneries, bridle paths, walks, and park drives. There are many playgrounds and other recreational facilities, including the Trump/Wollman Skating Rink. The Metropolitan Museum of Art stands in the park on Fifth Ave.

Other points of interest include a formal garden, a zoo, an Egyptian obelisk popularly called "Cleopatra's Needle," a New York City reservoir, and the Mall. In the open-air Delacorte Theater, Shakespearean dramas and other plays are presented free of charge. The private Central Park Conservancy works with New York City to preserve and improve the park.
