Olmstead & Parks in NYC






































I love Fort Green Park
30 acres
1867
It was Olmsteads first park

“Olmsted didn’t think a park should reveal itself in totality from any given place,” Mr. Twombly said. “He thought the park should unfold itself constantly as you walk through it. So there’s always a surprise, there’s always something new.”
