GGP vs. Central Park

I have been thinking that GGP is much bigger than Central Park. I mean it houses a windmill, a waterfall, a museum, a track stadium, a BISON field, multiple lakes, etc. Central Park does have a zoo and can house a Dave Matthews concert though. I finally looked it up.

Golden Gate Park is larger than Central Park.

Info:

Golden Gate Park, San Francisco's largest, is bigger than New York’s Central Park. About 3 miles long and 1/2-mile wide it covers 1,013 acres. GGP has over one million trees, nine lakes, several fly casting pools and a lily pond within its borders. Strybing Arboretum and Botanical Garden, the Conservatory of Flowers and several museums are among its many attractions.
