There are many, many parks in Manhattan, but the one you are probably thinking of is Central Park. Central Park, which is located in the center of Manhattan, is Manhattan's biggest park, at 843 acres.

Other parks in Manhattan are Inwood Hill Park, Riverside Park, Morningside Park, Highbridge Park, Fort Washington Park, Fort Tryon Park, Bryant Park, Union Square Park, Stuyvesant Square Park, Gramercy Park (in the neighborhood called Gramercy Park), Battery Park, Washington Square Park, Thompkins Square Park, City Hall Park, Foley Square Park, Columbus Park, Collect Pond Park, Seward Park, Corlears Hook Park, East River Park, Sarah Roosevelt Park, St. Vartan Park, Cavala Park, Duane Park, James J. Walker Park, Murphy Park, Hudson River Greenway, Chelsea Park, John Jay Park, Carl Schurz Park, Jefferson Park, Marcus Garvey Park, St. Nicolas Park, Jackie Robinson Park, Isham Park, Theodore Roosevelt Park, and probably a few others I've missed.

Riverside Park is 267 acres, Inwood Hill Park is 196 acres, and Highbridge Park is 119 acres, but the rest of the parks listed are comparatively very small. Morningside Park, for example, is 30 acres, Battery Park is 25 acres, and Washington Square Park and Bryant Park are less than 10 acres each.

Most of the rest, such as Stuyvesant Square Park, City Hall Park, Foley Square Park, Columbus Park, Collect Pond Park, James J. Walker Park, Murphy Park, St. Vartan Park, Chelsea Park, John Jay Park, Carl Schurz Park, Jefferson Park, Marcus Garvey Park, St. Nicolas Park, Seward Park, Cavala Park, Duane Park and Isham Park are only a few acres each. St. Vartan Park, for example, is 2.76 acres, Corlears Hook Park is 4.3 acres, Seward Park is 3 acres, Collect Pond Park is less than 1 acre, and Cavala Park is half an acre.
