This $74 million project overhauled 26 acres of the park’s southeast corner to reconstruct Frederick Law Olmsted and Calvert Vaux’s original design. Facilities include a boat dock and wading pools for kiddies along the restored waterside, plus the LeFrak Center, which houses seasonal ice- and roller-skating rinks as well as a café.
