​     Forgotten No More:
     The Restoration of
​     Untermyer Gardens

Richly illustrated with more than 100 photographs and drawings, the book documents the Conservancy’s impact on Untermyer Gardens during its first ten years and its plans for the future. ​Part One explores eight garden areas whose restoration is essentially complete, while Part Two presents seven envisioned garden areas.
 
"Achieving success in the areas of historic architectural preservation, large-scale landscape-design renewal, and the formation of an enduring public-private-park partnership for the perpetuation of the management and ongoing restoration of a formerly neglected historic landmark is a rare feat. Bravo to Stephen Byrns for spearheading an outstanding triple success story as recounted in words and images in this celebratory anniversary book."
Elizabeth Barlow Rogers, landscape architect and founder, Central Park Conservancy
