1966年，格拉梅西公园历史街区被列为纽约市保护地标，纽约时报称之为“一个拒绝死亡的维多利亚时代的绅士”Devree, Charlotte. "Private Life of a Park" New York Times (December 8, 1957), quoted in "Gramercy Park Historic District"  at the NYC Landmarks Preservation Commission。

格拉梅西公园附近的街区，通常被认为是一个安静和安全的地区。Cohen, Joyce. "If You're Thinking of Living In/Gramercy Park; A Long Sense of History, And a Private Park" , The New York Times, August 29, 1999. Accessed July 30, 2007. "Most distinctive of all is that Gramercy Park itself is the only private park in the city. Landscaped and leafy, the park defines the neighborhood, which runs from 14th to 23d streets and Park Avenue South to Third Avenue. The gates are locked for all but one afternoon a year, usually the first Saturday in May, when the park is open to the public."
