Hope you do one on Alley Pond park in Queens. It is where the 1st motor parkway in the U.S and the tallest tree in NYC are located. Very few people have know about this park.

Calvert Vaux was the Architect not the landscape guy. Olmsted was the landscape guy. All the bridges, tunnels, etc (including Bow Bridge in Central Park) was Vaux. You didn't show Endale Arch! You owe me money. Just kidding. Love your vids! Big fans!

I don't mean this super-seriously, but there's a thing you could call a "meadow" (if you really wanted to) in the Trinity River park in Dallas that's extremely huge. Literally miles long. Sometimes it's underwater.

Back in the day, there were quite a few "Rumbles" in that park. (Not that i was there) but i did date a 🔥Latin girl who lived across the st. They didnt like us Sunset kids on the turf. Kept the 78 busy.
