What reading level is A Plan for a Park for the City of Albany book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

It is 12 broken and uneven. The very qualities which have unfitted it for being occupied with dwellings make it especially adapted to this purpose. We have here the steep hillside ; we have the broken surface ; we have water, both for ponds and fountains. The declivity extending from Elk street, in the rear of the residences of Messrs. Strong, Rath- bone, Gansevoort, Parker and others, down to Canal street, is utterly useless for building or cultivation j but for the purposes of a park, nothing... could be more admirable.
Sufficient water from that unused by the waterworks could be obtained to supply the ponds that are already formed.
A large skating park could with little expense be con- structed. The top of Arbor Hill is very level, and would give ample accommodations for grounds for ball-playing, cricketing, &c.; purposes for which in the Central Park of New York, 50 acres have been devoted.
Already a large number of trees are growing in various parts of the land — maple, and elm, and willow ; and with prompt attention to this branch of the ornamentation, in a very short time the whole might be covered.
