Rob HepplerSeptember 10, 2013The only private park in Manhattan, allows rich people to do homeless people things in the saftey of their own park. Sleep on a bench, defecate behind a fountain. This Urban legend is real.
Lovely park-- well maintained, clean and never crowded. It's a great escape from the city noise and crowds while still being in downtown Manhattan!
ℳ𝒶𝓎♍December 11, 2021Beautifully manicured and well maintained private park which is only accessible to those who live in the area with a special key. You can also gain access if staying at specific hotels in the area- Signs VisualOctober 1, 2015This park is private for the people who reside around that area, and isn't open to the public. However, the sidewalks of the streets around the park is a popular and enjoyable jogging place. Read more
- DoubleDeuceJanuary 11, 2020The park is rarely open to those without a key. Sometimes, on Christmas Eve, there's children caroling and open doors...but this too can change from year to year.
BubsyNovember 13, 2013If you stay at the Gramercy Park Hotel you will have access to a key to the park. The park is closed at dusk.
Camila Rey de CastroJune 27, 2011This is a beautiful park that is a must in New York City.All the buildings around it are historical and you feel like you are in another era. Need a key to go in, but it is seeing it from the outside.
John PaterakisNovember 14, 2015The statue in the center of the park is of Edwin Booth and was donated by The Players in 1917. Every year on his birthday (November 13th), the members assemble and place a laurel wreath on his statue.- Lucille FisherSeptember 8, 2015A beautiful oasis of green & tranquility in the midst of the hustle & bustle of the East Side.
One of the nicest parks in the area for a stroll with your dog!
CompassApril 25, 2014Residents often try to find neighbors who have the elusive keys to Gramercy Park, but most have to view the greenery from outside its pearly gates.
Stan ChinOctober 24, 2010Pretend you're staying at the Gramercy and Ask the doorman to let you in. Admire the plaques about loving trees in safety as the zombies tear apart the city outside.
The Wall Street JournalMay 17, 2010Trouble in paradise: O. Aldon James, president of the National Arts Club, is battling the park's five trustees to loosen regulations governing enjoyment of the shared space. (Keys cost $350 apiece.) Read more

If ya don't got a key to the park ya don't love in gramercy.
Phillip LaycockSeptember 2, 2011The trick is to buy a $350 key and sell admission to passersby until you recoup your cost.
