Central Park

Recorded September 15, 2008.

Central Park is a large public, urban park in New York City, with about twenty-five million visitors annually. Most of the areas immediately adjacent to the park are known for impressive buildings and valuable real estate. Central Park has been a National Historic Landmark since 1963. Central Park is bordered on the north by West 110th Street, on the south by West 59th Street, on the west by Eighth Avenue. Along the park's borders however, these are known as Central Park North, Central Park South, and Central Park West respectively. Fifth Avenue retains its name along the eastern border of the park. While much of the park looks natural, it is in fact almost entirely landscaped. It contains several natural-looking lakes and ponds, extensive walking tracks, bridle paths, two ice-skating rinks, the Central Park Zoo, the Central Park Conservatory Garden, a wildlife sanctuary, a large area of natural woods, a 106-acre billion gallon reservoir with an encircling running track, and an outdoor amphitheater called the Delacorte Theater which hosts the "Shakespeare in the Park" summer festivals.

This video is of my walk through Central Park on a beautiful late summer day.

Although in the middle of the city, Central Park is great escape from all the hustle and bustle out on the streets. Great place for a lunch break.

Nice video, green open spaces are required urgent! in latinoamerican cities, the concept of this park is perfect: recreation, urban biodiversity, enviromental services for urban areas... thanks for the video.
