Plenty of History Around
City Hall Park

Although number of tablets have been
its history remains unrecorded At the inter
section of Nassau Street and Park Row the
Brick Presbyterian Church was built as early
as 1868. The building was used during the
Revolution as British prison. The church
moved uptown to Fifth Avenue and Thirty
seventh Street in 1858. On the block directly
south of it stood the first Clinton Hail. Orig
inaly the entire block bounded by Park Row
and Nassau and Beekman streets was known
as the Vineyard Lot, and the lot below it was
known as the Governors Garden from having
been purchased by Governor Dongan in 1856.
The first regular sidewalks laid in New
York were on the west side of Broadway run
ming from Vesey to Murray Street They
were comparatively recent, dating from 1887.
part of the Astor House still stands, dating
from 1884 This stood opposite the old Spring
Garden and on the property of the Drovers'
Inns-or Bulls Head Tavern. On the opposite
side of City Hall Park stood the first free
school of New York City. 1t was built in 1909
at the corner of Chatham Street, near the ter
minai Of the Brooklyn Bridge. Newspaper
Alley, or Frankfort Street, gets its name from
being the birthplace of Jacob Lesler, who was
executed for treason in 1891 on his own farm
in the vicinity. The present line of Park Row
was laid out long before any one thought of
continuing Broadway north of City Hall Park.
In the park and its general vicinity many
stirring scenes of the Revolution were enacted.

Bowling Green Is Merely
A Subwoy Station

There is no marker of any kind to tell the
stirring history cf Bowling Green Park. Here
stood the leaden equestrian statue of our last
monarch, George III. The crowd which tore
down the statue and melted the lead into bull
lets made history which deserves to be
recorded in bronze. There is nothing, again,
to record the fact that the fence surrounding
the little park is the original brought from
England in It'll. The fractures on the tops
OF the posts from which the royal insignia
were knocked off by the same crowd which
pulled down George III may still be seen, and
'"ey too, should be explained to future gen.
e4al'ohs which are only too prone to forget.
No single relic remains of the original town
VI new Amsterdam and very few tablets mark
us existence The old fort, with all it's build
ings' which played so important role in the
ei'ys early history, is unmarked, except for
'ne stone showing the position of one of it's
oaselons. The famous Governors House, the
eaurch IN the fort and the public buildings of
Tue early city are not kept in public memory.
iae last of the original Dutch houses did not
disappear until we'll along in the last century,
pu' nc single one of them is marked by any
aOlet to-day. The omission is especially re-
iarkaole IN the case of the original wall of
van Street. The stockade running across the
sand was a considerable engineering feat for
,s day, and it has been perpetuated in the
"ane OF one of the most famous streets in the
"oiio' but no tablet or marker records the fact.
inere should be number of memorials on
van street to record the important part it has
Hayed IN American history. One of its most
Iseresting financial associations has been al
most completely forgotten. 1t was here that
nis&ander Hamilton had his office-where he
'seeiVed in council the famous men of his day,
aiu where were decided many problems Of
'''ai Importance to the finances of the country.
Is Office stood on the south side of Wall
sweet, almost directly opposite the present
United States Treasury building. The origi-
aSi site is at present covered by the banking
A0ase Of ]. P. Morgan. The site of the pres
et assay Office was once occupied by the ia
sloas Yer Planck Mansion.
There are scores Of sites in lower Manhattan
New-York tribune., 1922-08-13

Long before the city commenced to spread
Greenwich Village was well established. It
was much the oldest settlement Of white men
on Manhattan Island after that about Fort
Amsterdam. The original settlement was built
up at the foot Of Christopher Street. There
were Dutch tobacco plantations here as early
1888. Hendrick Hudson in 1909 stopped
TO trade with the Indians near the Cansevoort
Market of to-day. Fort Gansevoort was built
here by General Peter Gansevoort, an officer
of Washingtons army, to protect the Hudson
River in the War of 1912, and was torn down
in 1851. At 80 Jane Street stood the home
of William Bayard, in which Alexander
Hamilton died.
One of the most historic buildings of this
section is the old Barrack building, at the south
east corner of Bank and Bleecker streets,
which was used as a prison for the British
seamen captured with the Peacock during the
War of 1872. The Richmond Hill mansion
stood on the block bounded by King, Varick,
Charlton and Macdougal streets. Built in
1850 by Abraham Mortimer, Commissioner of
the British Army, it was in turn occupied by
Lord Amherst. Sir William Carlton, George
Washington, Vice-President Adams and Aaron
Burr. 1t was later used as a theater and
finally became a roadhouse Along the
present line of Greenwich Avenue the CONT
mental forces consisting of Sullivan's brigade
and Knox's artillery retreated in 1776, their
guide being Aaron Burr.

Harlen, the retreatfro Longfs stand

old Castle Garden, where many of the most
famous artists of Europe appeared.
Practically nothing has been done to COM
memorate the historic streets which were to
civic center. A path was gradually worn,
winding over irregular ground to the ferry
which led to Brooklyn 1t followed the shore
Of the East River and gradually grew to be
Stone and Pearl streets. The considerable
strip of land between Pearl Street and the
river to-day is made" ground Another path
led from the fort northward to the center Of
the island, which later determined the line
of Broadway. The canal which extended up
Broad Street far as Beaver Street was
early lined with Dutch houses, and the street
gradually formed.
In time new paths were made beyond the
wall One of these which followed shaded
stream came to be known as Maiden Lone.
Prosaic historians attribute the name to the
fact that the Dutch maidens came here to
wash their clothes. Later roads were grad
ually developed to the northward leading to
the Dutch bouweries or farms which were to
give their name to famous thoroughfare. On
the west side of the island the Dutch early
built settlement near the Indian village of
Sappokanican, later named Greenwich Village.
The road, which was the fashionable drive
way of the period, followed the present line
of Greenwich Street. Since the road crossed
the Lispenard meadows and was frequently
under water, travellers later preferred the
route up the Bowery and the crossroad at
Astor Place.
The sites of the early churches of New York
where stirring scenes were enacted are rarely
marked. The first mill built on Manhattan
Island, by the West Indie Company in 1926,
stood at 1884 South William Street, and it
was in the upper story of this building that
the first regular religious service was held in
1923. In 1864 New Amsterdam was formally
surrendered to the British in the old mill.
Later it was used by the Jews for religious
services until they erected their first syna-
gogue the opposite side of the street The
building was used for long time for the
negro slaves of the West India Company The
First Presbyterian Church stood on Wall
Street just east of the head of New Street. and
here Jonathan Edwards and George White
field preached. The building was used as a
hospital by the British during" the Revolution
The North Dutch Church, built in 1869 on the
present site of 113 Fulton Street. was also
used for period a British prison. The
bell which once hung in the North Church
tower stands in the churchyard at Fifth
Avenue and Twenty ninth Street. At the cor
Of Broadway and Rector Street stood the
Lutheran Church from 1871 to 1776 The same
site was later occupied by Grace Church from
1903 to 1916.
