Description
As one of Central Park's three major meadows, this expansive stretch sits right by the 97th Street and 5th Avenue entrance. Well-maintained with regularly cut, short grass, the lawn offers plenty of open space for dogs, casual games, and finding a spot, though shade across the green is sparse.
