Worth a visit. The lady at the reception desk seemed kind of scattered-brained, but she might have been a volunteer, understandable. She took some time trying you find our tour company's reservation, and the line got LONG behind us.
The Central Park Zoo is a small 6.5-acre (2.6 ha) zoo located in Central Park in New York City. It is part of an integrated system of four zoos and the New York Aquarium managed by the Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS), and is accredited by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA).
Objectively, Central Park is 2.5 (51 blocks!) miles long and 1/2 a mile wide. Pretty diesel, as far as city parks go. Turns out, pretty diesel as far as some cities go! Other places are small as hell, right? Venice? The whole place is about as wide as Central Park is long. It's hard to believe Central Park would cover so much area in other cities. San Francisco, especially, looks tiny. It's a good reminder that New York City as a whole is huge.
