How does one deal with this disparity? Structure, rules, and control. For example, god forbid you run clockwise around the reservoir instead of counter-clockwise. New Yorkers will tell you how they feel and they will let you know right away.

Central Park Activities
Thank goodness for Central Park. Without this carefully designed and manicured outlet for physical and emotional energy, I think New Yorkers would truly go insane. Given the enormity of the park in relation to the size of Manhattan island, the park seems quite small to serve the CURRENT number of City inhabitants versus the population of New York when the Park was completed in 1863.

The park actually acts as a retreat from that bustling city background. It's nice to see nothing but trees and grass when you're inside! When I take my morning run through the park, it reminds me of our place in Denver, Colorado. Parks and recreation areas such as these should be placed in every corporate and commercial cities across the country - it really helps!
