There is a park two blocks away. A big park. AKA Central Park. More manufactured congestion courtesy of @NYC_DOT.

We're putting the “park” in Park Avenue.    Today we released the final concept for the redesign of Park Avenue from 46th Street to 57th Street. This project will transform the stretch of Park Avenue to make it safer, greener, and more welcoming.

Two blocks away? Look at a map. Central Park is between 8 minutes and 20 minutes away from this corridor. Meanwhile, for those who wish to drive, there is another avenue one block away on either direction, as well as the lanes for cars that will remain right here on Park Avenue!

You're both right. It's two blocks: Park then Madison then Fifth (the park). But they're long blocks.

Which park is on Fifth between 57th and 46th? Also, without further clarification, a block in Manhattan always refers to a north-south block (about 1/20 mile).
