Is Central Park in NYC famous for drug deals? -

I m not from New York, and I just saw a comedian, when talking about Whitney Houston performing in Central Park, saying: She knew that park pretty well ... every bush! Just wondering if Central Park is famous for a lot of drug deals or if that wasn t what was meant by that all.

Well, years ago, back in the days of hippies, you could always score some pot in the park, especially around Bethesda Fountain, but, nowadays, maybe not so much, really. Central Park, like the rest of New York City, has become pretty much gentrified and safe nowadays, not like the old days when it really was as dangerous as people still seem to think it is, but it really isn t any more.Good luck!...
