Stuyvesant Square


by CMag

"Cheap Land"

In 1836, the great-great grandson of the famous Peter Stuyvesant sold four-acres of his family's land to the city of New York for five dollars. Along with Gramercy Park, it is surrounded by one of Manhattan's most elite, yet quaint neighborhoods. The park is bisected by 2nd Avenue and though it has been in existence since the mid-19th Century, the famed landscape architect Robert Moses redesigned the park we see today in the 1930's. A few of the highlights include the original cast-iron fence created in 1847 (the second oldest in the city, after the one at Bowling Green), two fountains from 1884 and a statue of the magnificent composer, Antonin Dvořák.
