Like Central park, prospect park wwas beautifully designed by the same team of Vaux and Olmstead but unlike central park its never overcrowded and has only the rare tourist. Many of the same amenities, the zoo, carousel etc but I think even more beautiful than central and it feels much more like a neighborhood park.

Designed by Fredrick Olmsted. He is the same person who designed Central Park.
Great for hipster watching, long walks, lakeside picnics and incredible greenery, which as you know, is a premium in NYC

My dad used to take me here every Sunday - we'd ride our bikes a little then get off and explore. Wonderful things to do and see.

We just loved the park. Great place to watch the world go by. Definitely worth the visit, and after two weeks in Manhattan it was nice to break out a bit!

A beautiful place to walk, picnic, or bike. Fly a kite or just relax in the shade.

What a beautiful park. It's so huge it would take more than a day to do it all in that park. My dogs had a blast and the stroll thru the nearby neighborhoods like Park Slope shouldn't be skipped either!
