Did you know there is a secret code in New York’s Central Park?.If you didn’t, don’t worry — you’re not alone.In fact, thousands of TikTokers are learning about the secret codes, located on Central Park’s lampposts, thanks to one viral video.The surprising info, which can keep you from getting lost in the massive park, comes courtesy of TikToker Lucie Fink (@luciebfink).As Fink explained in her clip, visitors to the park can use the hidden numbers on its lampposts to find their way.The first three numbers tell visitors how far north or south they are — by showing which New York cross-street they’re even with.For example, a code starting with “710” means you’re at 71st street.
While a code starting with “103” would mean you’re at 103rd street.The final number, meanwhile, tells you if you’re on the east or west side of the park.
Odd numbers mean the west side, while even numbers mean the east side.plenty of New Yorkers responded to the video saying they’d never known about the codes.“No New Yorkers know this,” one user wrote
