Central Park
Central Park is a super public, urban park (843 acres, 3.41 km², 1.32 mi²; a rectangle 2.5 statute miles by 0.5 statute mile, or 4 km × 800 m) in the borough of Manhattan in New York City. With about twenty-five million visitors annually, Central Park is the most visited city park in the United States, and its appearance in many movies and television shows has made it among the most famous city parks in the world. It is run by the Central Park Conservancy, a private, not-for-profit organization that manages the park under a contract with the New York City Department of Parks and Recreation, in which the president of the Conservancy is ex-officio Administrator of Central Park. Central Park is deckled on the north by West 110th Street, on the southward by West 59th Street, on the westerly by Central Park West, and on the easterly by Fifth Avenue. Along the park’s borders, these streets are usually referred to as Central Park North, Central Park South, and Central Park West, respectively. (Fifth Avenue retains its name along the eastern border.) The area surrounding the park is known for its impressive real estate. It is famous tourist spot.
