Central Park
Many outsiders are surprised to learn that there is more to Central Park than grass and trees.It turns out that Central Park really is a theme park of itself, with its own castle and zoo and carriage rides.

During his lifetime he was able to use his wealth to acquire first editions and rare books (including three Gutenberg Bibles), handwritten letters and manuscripts, sketches of the master painter, original scores by the greatComposers and ancient Near Eastern seals and cuneiform tablets engraved. Each artifact is the boring history lessons seem more human.
