TAKE ME TO MANHATTAN!!


Manhattan is the most densely populated and smallest in area of the five boroughs of New York City. It is located on the island of Manhattan at the mouth of the Hudson River. 
 Manhattan has Central Park, Rockefeller Center, the Guggenheim Museum, and the World Trade Center site and iconic neighborhoods like Harlem, the Upper East Side, Times Square, and Greenwich Village. 

 










A WALK THROUGH CENTRAL PARK


New York's Central Park is one of the city's safest and most desirable walking locations. The walkway around the Reservoir is made out of cinder, making it soft and slightly springy. The design for Central Park was conceived by Frederick Law Olmstead and Calvert Vaux, who submitted their "Greenswald Plan" for Central Park during a contest organized by the Central Park Commission. When Central Park first opened in the winter of 1859 it was the first artificially landscaped 
park in the United States. Central Park is a great place for picnicking, listening to music and exploration. There are many fun, free events in Central Park, particularly in the summer.
