THE CENTRAL PARK.

To THE Editor of the Real Estate Record.

I HAVE read two articles in. the Record re¬
cently published, purporting to give a narrative
of the origin and growth of the Central Park,
which, though correct as far as they go, are
very far from being full, or stating justly what
is due to others in that connection.

It is singular that no one thinks it worth
while to give the names of those who were the
real projectors of the park in its present loca¬
tion, nor of the gentlemen under whose eyes
and direction the ornamentation and improve¬
ments were designed. When that history shall
be written, it wUl be seen that the names in
this connection which will appear most promi¬
nent, are Ambrose C. Kengsl^vnij, George
Bancroft, Edward Everett, Fernando
Wood, Egbert L. Viele, Jeremiah Towle,
Frederick Hudson representing James Gor¬
don Bennett, and Robert J. Dillon.
