Gramercy Park is a small, private park in Manhattan, which has been famously accessible by key since the 1840s. Only residents living in the immediately surrounding townhouses and apartments, as well as members of local clubs, hold keys to the park. The keys are coded and tabs are kept on the ownership of each key. As of 2012, 383 were in circulation.
