More Postcards From New York City #71 - The Conservatory at the Botanical Gardens in Central Park
(Image via: NYCDreamin Archives)
The Conservatory, Central Park, New York City. The Conservatory is located at Fifth Avenue east, from 102nd to 105th Streets. Here are exhibited rare plants brought to this country from all parts of the world. The Conservatory is open daily to all visitors.
A bit more info from TripCart.com:
The six-acre Conservatory Garden is Central Park's only formal garden. It takes its name from the huge glass conservatory that once stood on this same spot, built in 1898. In 1934, when maintenance of the facility had become too costly, the conservatory was demolished and replaced with the present Garden, which opened to the public in 1937. The Conservatory Garden is in fact three gardens representing different landscape styles: Italian, French, and English.
And still more information about the gardens in Central Park can be found at the official Central Park Blog.
