The Lake, with the Ramble to the north, creates an essential part of the 1858 Greensward Plan designed by Frederick Law Olmsted and Calvert Vaux for Central Park. The plan, modeled on the English garden style, emphasizes variety and contrast--formal areas, meadows, dense woods, ponds, and lakes. View south from Oak Bridge at Bank Rock Bay, near West 77th Street.
