Morningside Park, St. Nicholas Park, and Jackie Robinson Park (formerly Colonial Park) where created due to the typography of Manhattan in the Harlem Valley area. While on a flat map, these parks seem to contain a lost of surface area, that is not actually the case. Such a map view is decieving. These parks contain rocky hillsides, steep stairs, and not a great deal of surface area for recreational facilities.It should be noted that of course these parks pre-date Robert Moses, and therefore do not "count" as parks that he created during his tenure. Yes, some improvements as well as the installation of some facilities to these parks were made during his tenure. Mike |
