Greensward · Central Park as Olmsted and Vaux drew it

Orbit drag · Pan right-drag or shift-drag · Zoom scroll

Click any label, or the ground itself, to fly there and open its story

Places on the left: the plan and the list both take you there

How the design works shows the separated ways, the composed views, and how much was made by hand

Then & now scrubs the park through time beside the original drawings

Change the season and the hour at the foot of the screen
