I would have, but they were serious. The ducks had attitude.

Seriously- from the pics I saw in the news- it could have been done better. Maybe instead of lining the sidewalks, do large red (not orange) swags along the perimeter of the park.
I don't think that the idea could have been done well at all. Central Park is an artificial creation designed to make people forget that they are in a man made place. Its an illusion, and that's part of the magic of Central Park. The arches break the illusion and make you remember that you're in the middle of something that is fabricated. The arches are antithetical to all that is Central Park.
