Celebrate Black History Month with NYC Parks! Learn about the lives of Seneca Village’s residents in the 1800s and the community’s place in pre-Central Park. The tour begins on West 81st Street and Central Park West. An Urban Park Ranger will explain the the history of the area. Seneca Village was a 19th-century settlement of predominantly African American landowners in what is now Central Park, Manhattan. Founded in 1825 by free Black Americans, it grew to include about 225 residents, three churches, two schools, and three cemeteries, later also housing Irish and German immigrants. The community was forcibly displaced in 1857 through eminent domain for the creation of Central Park. Rediscovered through historical research and archaeological digs, the site has been commemorated with exhibitions and signage, including efforts by the Seneca Village Project and the Central Park Conservancy to honor its legacy.Click here for more information.
