The Arsenal | Manhattan, NY

The secrets hiding in plain sight inside New York City’s most iconic park.
Beneath the greenery and postcard views of Central Park lies a far more provocative history. This walking tour uncovers the scandals, crimes, controversies, and erased communities that helped shape the park as we know it today. From mass evictions and celebrity arrests to hidden gathering spots, sensational headlines, and statue-related debates, you’ll discover a Central Park most visitors never imagine.
This isn’t a fairy-tale stroll. It’s the lesser-known story of a landscape marked by spectacle, secrecy, and shifting social values, where beauty often concealed deeper truths.
If you're drawn to true crime, untold history, or the secrets that landmarks try to forget, this is the Central Park tour for you. Come see what the guidebooks leave out.
