“Park vs. Park“ in the Times. Actually quite good.
As for the forest, go there when it’s hot — the temperature is 15 degrees cooler. Your breathing will change. You’ll find yourself speaking in hushed tones. The sounds are all birdsong and water, and the air is thick with the scent of lindens. At 146 acres, the forest is so vast you may get lost. Modeled on the Adirondacks wilderness, it’s full of centuries-old oaks and centered on a precipitous 100-foot ravine.

Yes: all true. The very thought of such a place in the warmth of July 2010 is cooling.
