Behold a Once-Lost Plan for a Central Park That Might Have Been
When the Board of Commissioners of Central Park decided it was time to build Central Park in 1857, they announced a design contest with a prize to the tune of $2,000 (around $50,000 today). Obviously, it was Frederick Law Olmsted and Calvert Vaux's design won. But there were 33 other failed entries, only five of which still exist.
