The mission of the Central Park Conservancy is to restore, manage and enhance Central Park in partnership with the public, for the enjoyment of present and future generations.
The Conservancy aspires to build a great organization that sets the standard and spreads the principles of world-class park management — emphasizing environmental excellence — to improve the quality of open space for the enjoyment of all New Yorkers.
The Conservancy is committed to sustaining this operating model to provide a legacy for future generations of Central Park users.
Carousel
One of Central Park's favorite attractions, the Carousel is visited by almost 250,000 riders each year. On warm days, it’s not uncommon for the line to snake around the popcorn and balloon vendors.
