Cedar Hill (Central Park)

Cedar Hill is an east-facing slope in Central Park, Manhattan, New York City.

The hill is used for reading and sunbathing, as well as sledding in winter, and is a preferred area for dog owners.

[1] Eddie Coyle, a sportswriter for the New York Daily News, in his weekly running columns in the late 1970s, often called it "cat" Hill and the name became popular.

At its southern perimeter stands the Glade Arch designed by Calvert Vaux, which originally provided carriage traffic with a conduit to Fifth Avenue.

Hidden deep beneath the north end of Cedar Hill runs New York City Water Tunnel No.
