Amidst the towering skyscrapers, the hustle and bustle, and the N.Y.C. you’ve come to know and love in movies and TV, rests a huge and magical place for New Yorkers and tourists, alike: Central Park. It’s a place so large (843 acres of open greenery... where you can view magnificent buildings from afar), it actually spans 2 ½ miles long and ½ mile wide (59th st. – 110th st.). IMAGINE… (And yes a dedication with 2 ½ acres of Strawberry Fields Forever to John Lennon, too…) It’s not only Sammy’s favorite place—children, adults and pets come to explore, picnic, bike, run, bird-watch, go to concerts on The Great Lawn, sunbathe, row a boat at the Boat Pond, throw a Frisbee, take great photos, relax, play, rollerblade, skate, go to the Zoo, eat at the famous Boat House restaurant, take in the beauty… and just have so much fun. Sammy says: See you there...
