Description
A short walk from Central Park, this space offers a slower pace than its famous neighbor. Visitors use the spot to enjoy lunch year-round or pause on the benches. The area is traced by walking paths, making it a destination for a stroll or mindful meditation. In the spring, blooming flowers frame the water, while the massive, exposed formations stand as some of the oldest rocks in the city.
