Hope you do one on Alley Pond park in Queens. It is where the 1st motor parkway in the U.S and the tallest tree in NYC are located. Very few people have know about this park.

I've heard of prospect park from various body dumps in American TV shows (I'm a Brit) so was cool getting a tour of a place I'm unlikely to ever visit.

Great video! I wonder if you would ever consider doing Princeton? I know it’s kind of a hike, but you’ve done Long Island places… Lots of great history there also with the university.

Calvert Vaux was the Architect not the landscape guy. Olmsted was the landscape guy. All the bridges, tunnels, etc (including Bow Bridge in Central Park) was Vaux. You didn't show Endale Arch! You owe me money. Just kidding. Love your vids! Big fans!

I don't mean this super-seriously, but there's a thing you could call a "meadow" (if you really wanted to) in the Trinity River park in Dallas that's extremely huge. Literally miles long. Sometimes it's underwater.
