Central Park Trees and Landscapes: A Guide to New York City's Masterpiece

Under the direction of the Central Park Conservancy, the Park's landscapes have been painstakingly restored and maintained to achieve the effects envisioned more than 150 years ago by the park's designers, Frederick Law Olmsted and Calvert Vaux. This book highlights the leading role that trees play in defining 22 of these landscapes and chronicles the history of the over 170 tree species and varieties present in the park―where each came from and where the most outstanding specimens are located. Learn more about the different kinds of trees you’re strolling and jogging by each time you visit Central Park.
