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).
The 55-acre Great Lawn, in the center of Central Park from 79th to 85th streets, hosted a Papal Mass in 1995. Foliage in much of Central Park is, in fact, almost entirely landscaped. The park contains several man-made lakes and ponds, along with walking and bridle paths.
