We are deeply saddened by the most recent incident involving a carriage horse in Central Park.

ALT White text on a black background that reads: Statement from the Central Park Conservancy on Horse's Tragic Death in Central Park. The Central Park Conservancy has long believed that horse carriages pose a public safety risk in the increasingly crowded Park. In the past year, New Yorkers have witnessed at least seven separate incidents in which horses became spooked and either broke free—posing danger to passengers, park-goers, and others—or caused injury to their drivers, or, now, collapsed and died on Central Park’s Drives. It’s time to end this practice.

“Where you need to spend that money and support are those smaller theaters, those theaters that have a vision,” said Matt Williams, a TV show creator who is trying to produce a musical. “I don’t know why you would subsidize a Walt Disney musical.”
