Central Park Secrets

Museum of Broadway Opening November 2022

Museum of Broadway Opening November 2022

Celebrate the 200th birthday in 2022 of Frederick Law Olmstead, designer of Central Park and also Brooklyn's Prospect Park.  


 Central Park may be the best-known park in the world, but even so, it has secrets. Here are our favorites. 

 

Orient Yourself With Lampposts 

It’s easy to get lost when foliage is too thick for you to see the buildings and skyline to help you find your way. Look to the lamposts instead.  

There are two sets of numbers on each one. The first set indicates the nearest cross street, from 59th to 110th.  The second set tells you if you’re on the east or west side—odd means west, even means east. 


Ruins of a 19th Century Tavern

 The remnants of a century-old stone structure can be found behind the Conservatory Garden, at 105th St. and Fifth Ave., called McGown’s Pass. It’s named for McGown’s Pass Tavern, which closed in 1915. Originally, the site was the Academy of St. Vincent, built in 1845. Then it was occupied by a hotel, then a restaurant and then a museum, before burning down in 1881 and replaced by the tavern. The Central Park Conservatory now uses it as a compost pile.


Shakespeare Garden  

Every planting in this four-acre patch is mentioned in a Shakespeare play or sonnet, and most are labeled with the quotation, so you can find a rose by any name that smells so sweet.  The Shakespeare Garden is on the west side of the park near 79th St. 


What Lies Beneath

There are many relics of the NYC subway’s past hidden beneath the streets. One of the most intriguing is the so-called Ghost Tunnel under the corner of Central Park at Fifth Ave. and 59th St. It was built in the 1970s as part of the plan to build the Second Avenue subway, but  abandoned by the recession. Forty years later, the Second Avenue Subway is reality, and the loop is alive, helping move the Q train link to it’s new northern route. 


Why the  Roads are Curved

 The pathways were designed in the 1850s with deliberate curves, to prevent horse-drawn carriage racing. Today, those curves still prevent speeding,  and add some scenic benefits for cyclists. 


The Ramble Cave 

 Back when Central Park was under construction, workers discovered a natural cave near the Ramble. Not surprisingly, it became a magnet for shady, dangerous underground activity (both literally and figuratively), and it was filled in. 


Central Park Casino 

The children’s playground on the east side of the park near Fifth Avenue and 72nd Street was once the site of the Central Park Casino. Originally, it was designated as the Ladies’ Refreshment Salon for afternoon tea and gossip. It became a speakeasy during Prohibition, serving both women and men, and  after Prohibition it became an upscale nightclub. When the Depression hit, it lost popularity because of its high prices, and NYC master builder Robert Moses demolished it in 1936. 


Be Seated 

Central Park contains 9,000+ benches, and 4,500+ have been adopted with a personalized plaque. The Adopt-A-Bench program was established in 1986 to help fund the care of Central Park’s benches and surrounding landscapes. In recognition of contributions to the fund, Central Park Conservancy installs a personalized plaque on a park bench of the donor’s choosing, for a $10,000 endowment. 


See the Central Park website for additional information on all these fabulous features and secrets.

Best NYC Resale and Consignment Shops

Best Outdoor Markets for Food & Crafts

Best NYC Resale and Consignment Shops

  Any time is a good time to clean out your closet and dresser drawers, especially now, when it’s called spring cleaning. 


If you have designer duds, consigning them for resale can help pay for new purchases or your bills. Or, buy somebody else’s gently worn famous label clothing, shoes and accessories at one of New York City’s top consignment and resale shops. 


According to eBay, nearly half of Americans don’t have available space in which to stash the new stuff they get. That number surely is even higher in NYC, where most of us don’t have garages or attics. 


These NYC resale and consignment shops pay the best, buy the most, have the best policies, and the best inventory for you to shop if you want to buy or trade instead of sell. NYC resale and consignment stores are just one of many ways to live in NYC on the cheap. 


Buffalo Exchange 

This buy-sell-trade outlet is a go-to for both budget-challenged college students and fashionable folks with bigger wallets. 


Among the endless racks of tweedy blazers, oversized flannels, soft tees with oddball slogans and chunky-knit sweaters, you can find Milly dresses, Marc by Marc Jacobs blouses, Vince tops, and Jeffrey Campbell shoes. The prices are almost too good to be true, partly because this is a national chain with serious clout to buy out manufacturer overstock. 


No appointment is necessary to sell, but prepared to wait on a sizable line if you go on the weekend.  The store recommends you call before going if it’s your first time, so they can give you an idea of what they’re looking for at the moment and save you some time. You’ll get 30% of what they plan to sell the item for, or 50% store credit.  


You can book an appointment online to buy or sell. Various locations in Astoria, Williamsburg, Park Slope, the East Village and Chelsea. 


NYC Travel Guru considers Buffalo Exchange  to be the best resale shop in New York City.   It is the only resale shop included in our new NYC guidebook 100 Things to Do in NYC Before You Die  Order from Amazon or Barnes & Noble.


 Michael’s Consignment 

This Upper East Side store only accepts the best of the best. Consigned merchandise must have a top designer label and not a second or third tier label—so for example, they take Donna Karan but not DKNY, Chloé but not SEE by Chloé, etc. Items must be in pristine condition, and no more than two years old (with the exception of Chanel, Hermes, and Pucci).  


You’ll receive 50% of the selling price, which is reduced approximately 20% every 30 days. After 90 days, the item gets discounted 50% off the original selling price. If you’re outside of New York, you can ship your stuff to them. Michael’s now also has an excellent online store, to shop by category or by designer. 1125 Madison Avenue. 


Crossroads Trading Co 

Rather than consignment, this  is a buy-sell-trade store, which means when you bring your clothes in, you get cash (or a check) on the spot – 50% for trade, 30% for cash. No appointments are necessary, so just drop in. Weekdays offer the least amount of waiting time. 


The store buyers are friendly and quick, and if you’re in a rush, you can drop off your goods and return in 24 hours to collect your payment. 


Sellers may bring up to 50 items to sell. Please bring only laundered items. Sellers must be 18 or older with a valid government-issued photo ID. 


Crossroads accepts both high-end or fast fashion, such as from H&M and Zara, but it has to be in good (clean) condition, stylish, and in season. If you decide to trade, you get credit worth 50% of what your items will sell for. 


The racks are plentiful but well organized, and you’ll find everything from Anna Sui, Elizabeth and James, and Free People to Badgley Mischka, Gap—and the occasional Miu Miu. 


This is a national chain, with multiple locations in California, plus in Seattle, Portland, Chicago, and, of course, in NYC. 24 West 26th Street in Chelsea and 135 N. 7th Street in Williamsburg. 


INA  

There are three locations in Manhattan,  one of which is specifically for men’s merchandise. Appointments can be made with store buyers, or you can choose to ship them your merchandise by filing out an Online Consignment Form (they reimburse your shipping costs on the first sales check). 


They accept merchandise from the last five years from a bevy of high-end and contemporary designers, from such brands as Anthropologie, J.Crew, Banana Republic and Express. Locations are 19 Prince St., 21 Prince St. (menswear) and 208 West 18th St. 


Beacon’s Closet 

One of the most well-known buy-sell-trade stores in New York, scouted by TV stylists, dug through by the fashion-conscious, and thoroughly searched by students and those on a budget. This means you’ll find some real gems since so many people make this their go-to for selling cast-offs, and you’ll also always find it crowded. 


Beacon’s buys everything from Topshop to Thakoon, so the racks can get overwhelmingly full. Beacon’s Closet follows what’s selling at other fast fashion and high-end stores every season, so that determines how well you’ll do with your items that you hope to sell. Your items must be stylish, in good condition, and be something that’s selling well that season. If all those standards are met, you get 35% cash or 55% store credit. Four locations in Brooklyn and Manhattan.  Each one is open 7 days.

Additional Information

This is a long form text area designed for your content that you can fill up with as many words as your heart desires. You can write articles, long mission statements, company policies, executive profiles, company awards/distinctions, office locations, shareholder reports, whitepapers, media mentions and other pieces of content that don’t fit into a shorter, more succinct space.


Articles – Good topics for articles include anything related to your company – recent changes to operations, the latest company softball game – or the industry you’re in. General business trends (think national and even international) are great article fodder, too.


Mission statements – You can tell a lot about a company by its mission statement. Don’t have one? Now might be a good time to create one and post it here. A good mission statement tells you what drives a company to do what it does.


Company policies – Are there company policies that are particularly important to your business? Perhaps your unlimited paternity/maternity leave policy has endeared you to employees across the company. This is a good place to talk about that.


Executive profiles – A company is only as strong as its executive leadership. This is a good place to show off who’s occupying the corner offices. Write a nice bio about each executive that includes what they do, how long they’ve been at it, and what got them to where they are.
