EXHIBITION ON VIEW
Location: State Street Tunnel, Between the New York State Capitol and Empire State Plaza
In 2024, New York State Parks and Historic Sites celebrates its Centennial, commemorating the 100th anniversary of the creation of the New York State Council of Parks by Governor Alfred E. Smith and the State Legislature, which forged the State Park and Historic Site system we know and love today.
This system was built for you and serves as an acknowledgement that public access to open spaces and recreational assets is a right, not a privilege, afforded to all. Join us in celebrating the growth and expansion of our system over the last 100 years—and help us ignite conversation and action around the care and preservation of New York State lands for generations to come. This exhibit features images that showcase New York State Parks and Historic Sites.
THANK YOU
The exhibition, 100 Years: See You Out There, is a partnership between New York State Parks and Historic Sites and the New York State Office of General Services.
