Answer:

D. Frederick Law Olmsted designed the Central Park in New York City at the end of XIX century.

Explanation:

Central Park in New York was officially born on July 21, 1853, when the state legislature authorized the city to purchase more than 100 acres of land in midtown Manhattan. The huge park was designed by the most famous American landscape artist Frederick Law Olmsted and the English architect Calvert Vaux.

Olmstead and Vaux's project integrates formal and pastoral elements throughout the park and their design follows the pinturous, where at every moment one is surprised to walk by the fact that the paths are curved and the landscape composition has been designed to create varied environments, offering to visitors from formal paths such as The Mall and Literary Walk to the wildest, such as the Ramble area.
