Wagner Cove

Join Conservancy guides as we take a dive into the LGBTQ+ community’s dynamic history and influence on the world‘s most famous urban park.

Before Central Park was built, the area from West 82nd to West 89th Street was home to Seneca Village, the largest community of African-American property owners in New York.

Take a behind-the-scenes tour with Conservatory Garden staff as we explore this urban gem.
