Hotels and subway lines around Columbus Circle dump thousands of visitors onto the southwest corner of Central Park. That is useful geography, not a separate carriage station. Central Park Carriages Official meets at Central Park South and 7th Avenue (59th Street). From Columbus Circle you walk the park-south sidewalk with enough time to be 10 minutes early. Do not wait under the Columbus statue hoping a reserved carriage will hunt for you.
Walking, not guessing
Follow your confirmation. Location context is on meeting areas. If you are coming from Fifth Avenue instead, that is a different approach to the same curb, not a different company.
Subway buffer
A delayed B/D/E or 1 train is the usual reason people miss a slot. Same-day rebooking is only possible if the calendar still has inventory.
