Dairy Visitor Center i sklep z pamiątkami

W dawnych czasach jedną z najważniejszych potrzeb dzieci było świeże mleko. Niestety, seria skandali i epidemii cholery sprawiła, że produkcja mleczarska w mieście znalazła się pod chmurą podejrzeń. Aby rozwiać podejrzenia i zaspokoić potrzeby mieszkańców w zakresie nabiału, miasto zapewniło miejsce, w którym rodziny mogły znaleźć gotowe zapasy świeżego mleka podczas podróży do parku. W ten sposób powstała mleczarnia. Dziś mleczarnia służy jako ogólne centrum dla zwiedzających i dostarcza opinii publicznej informacji na temat projektu Central Parku, aktualnych wydarzeń i programów w parku.

Fontanna Bethesda

Ta fontanna o wysokości 26 stóp i średnicy 96 stóp jest jedną z największych w mieście. Stworzony przez rzeźbiarkę Emmę Stebbins upamiętnia otwarcie w 1842 roku akweduktu Croton, który przyniósł świeżą wodę z hrabstwa Westchester do Nowego Jorku i zakończył epidemię cholery. Anioł Wód — pierwsze duże dzieło sztuki publicznej Miasta zamówione u kobiety — nawiązuje do ewangelii Jana, która opisuje anioła błogosławiącego Sadzawkę Betesda i obdarzającego ją mocą uzdrawiania. Lilia w jej lewej ręce reprezentuje czystość, a cztery postacie otaczające cokół poniżej oznaczają pokój, zdrowie, czystość i wstrzemięźliwość. Powóz zatrzyma się przy Fontannie Bethesda, będzie można zrobić sobie krótki spacer do fontanny i zrobić sobie pamiątkowe zdjęcia.
