I found this film, by Thomas Edison, on the Central Park Conservancy’s website, via the Library of Congress. It was taken on Winter Drive, on the west side of the park.

Thank you so much for posting this! It’s always fascinating to see a little piece of New York City history.
What a great clip! NYC before down coats and boots–those pedestrians must have been freezing! Thanks for this….
