And gentle winds and waters near, make music to the lonely ear. - Lord Byron . 09.18.16 Late #summer days at the Conservatory Water #CentralPark #NewYorkCity . Conservatory Water was initially intended to be a small pool for a glass house and a formal ornamental garden. . Later, it was reshaped as a model boat pond similar to that in Paris.
