Erik Larson Quote

To produce the kind of landscape effects Olmsted strived to create required not months but years, even decades. I have all my life been considering distant effects and always sacrificing immediate success and applause to that of the future, he wrote. In laying out Central Park we determined to think of no result to be realized in less than forty years.
