This magnificent park, in the center of Manhattan island, is the Mecca of all visitors to New York City. In our journey through the park we visit the world-famous Metropolitan Museum. Nearby we are attracted by Cleopatra's Needle, a gift from the Egyptian Government to New York City. We see the keepers feeding the hippopotami; children feeding the swans in the beautiful lake; the Columbus Monument at the Fifty-Ninth Street and Eighth Avenue entrance; the Sherman Statue at the Fifty-Ninth Street and Fifth Avenue entrance; the Casino; the picturesque lake; a lady visitor feeding the squirrels; the crowds on The Mall; Webster's Monument; the Cave: the Pilgrim Fathers' Monument: the Playground; McGown's Pass Tavern; the Old Stone Fort; the donkey ride; the trick elephant going through his paces under the instruction of a keeper; a Saturday concert; and many other interesting sights greet our eyes.
Released as a split reel along with the comedy Paying the Board Bill (1912).
