New York's sprawling 'green lung' is an icon of the city today, and its design was decided in a competition which ran in the 1850s. Numerous entries were put forward, including an intricate Versailles-style symmetrical offering, but the winning option was by Calvert Vaux and Frederick Law Olmsted, who favored vast, open green spaces. Unfortunately, construction of the park displaced around 1,600 inhabitants, including a predominantly African-American settlement named Seneca Village.
