Fun Facts:
- Central Park was built on land with large amounts of protruding bedrock. These had to be landscaped using gunpowder and it took more gunpowder than the Battle of Gettysburg.
- Things in Central Park are a little bit curvy. The original vision for the park was of flowing natural lines, so it was landscaped with almost no straight lines, paths, etc..
