Since 1980, the Central Park Conservancy has served as the steward of Central Park. In July 2016, the Conservancy announced Forever Green: Ensuring the Future of Central Park – a ten-year campaign to restore and preserve the historic Frederick Law Olmsted / Calvert Vaux vision for this extraordinary landscape. Following decades of investment by the Conservancy in essential rebuilding and infrastructure, Forever Green, lead by Anne B. Harrison, Thomas L. Kemper, Jr., and John Paulson, will raise $300 million to enable vital long-term planning for the entire Park, its woodlands, historically and architecturally significant structures, playgrounds and more — a cultural renaissance for Central Park.
