How close does the game get to the real place?
In the game
Middle Park is the large green space in the centre of Algonquin, with a big lake, a formal plaza, an obelisk and a museum on its eastern edge.
The real place
Central Park was designed by Frederick Law Olmsted and Calvert Vaux and opened in the 1850s and 1860s. The game's lake follows the outline of the park's Reservoir, its plaza copies Bethesda Terrace, and its obelisk echoes Cleopatra's Needle.
Visiting
Enter at Columbus Circle or Fifth Avenue and walk north along the Mall to Bethesda Terrace. Hiring a bike is a good way to see the whole park.
Central Park is also in Marvel's Spider-Man. See all 2 games side by side
