Central Park. New York, NY, US.
Central Park was designed in 1857 by the Englishman Calvert Vaux and the American Frederick Law Olmstead. Their winning Greensward plan submerged the busy cross streets that connect the east and west sides of New York, and created several naturalistic lakes.
Calvert Vaux, the visionary architect behind New York City’s Central Park, would have marked his birthday on Dec 20, 1824. So this seems an appropriate time to celebrate his Central Park bridges. Each one is unique; an ornament tucked into the broader landscape.... made all the more beautiful by fresh snowfall...
