Great Lawn

TIME : 2016/2/18 12:14:26

Located between 79th and 86th Sts, this massive emerald carpet at the center of Central Park hosts outdoor concerts and is where you can catch the New York Philharmonic Orchestra each summer. There are also eight softball fields, basketball courts and a canopy of London plane trees.

The lawn was created in 1931 by filling in a former reservoir.
