Which sentence best summarizes the passage in the story "Christo and Jeanne-Claude:Through the Gates and Beyond"?

In 2005 Christo and Jeanne-Claude created The Gates, a public artwork that stretched 23 miles through New York City’s Central Park.

In 1979 Christo and Jeanne-Claude had the idea for The Gates, but in 1981 the New York Parks Commissioner stopped them from building it.
