In the early 1850s, wealthy New York merchants and landowners admired the public grounds of London and Paris. They argued that New York needed a comparable facility to establish its international reputation. Join travel lecturer Sheila Taub to find out how Central Park was created and recently restored to the beautiful place it is today. Registration is underway.
