Because of the numerous restorations and transformations that Carl Schurz Park has undergone, the parks landscape and geographic features are mostly artificial. The park has been disconnected from the shoreline and a many of the plants and trees are not native to the area. The park is constantly manicured and maintained volunteers and a full time staff of gardeners.

Can you explicitly contrast the conditions today with what was there in the past (from your earlier sections derived from the Manahatta project)?
I’m not sure that the picture above is actually showing Manhattan schist. The rock in that picture looks like a constructed rock wall, and may be limestone or something else.
