Historical Context
This New York State bond was issued to acquire lands for the state's state forest preserve park.
New York's Forest Preserve has lands in the Catskills and Adirondacks. The two parks were designated by the New York State legislature near the turn of the 20th century, and originally included only the state-owned Forest Preserve land. The description of each park was revised in 1912 to include ALL lands, both public and private, within the "Blue Line". This term is commonly used today, as blue is the color used on state maps to delineate the two parks.
The lands are protected as "forever wild" by Article XIV of the New York State Constitution.
