Central Park is an urban park in the New York City borough of Manhattan. It was initially opened in 1857, on 778 acres (315 ha) of city-owned land (it is 843 acres today[5]). In 1858, Frederick Law Olmsted and Calvert Vaux won a design competition to improve and expand the park with a plan they titled the Greensward Plan. Construction began the same year, continued during the American Civil War, and was completed in 1873. Central Park is the most visited urban park in the United States.[1] Designated a National Historic Landmark in 1962, the park is currently managed by the Central Park Conservancy under contract with the city government. The Conservancy is a non-profit organization that contributes 83.5% of Central Park's $37.5 million annual budget and employs 80.7% of the park's maintenance staff.[6] More info visit:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_Park central park zoo, central park map, central park mall, central park five, central park kharghar, how big is central park, central park size, central park facts, Central Park, central park summerstage 2014, central park toile fabric, central park concerts 2013, central park zoo promo code, central park map, empire state building, central park new york, times square, schedule, victorian gardens central park,
