Seneca Village

Seneca Village was a vibrant community in New York City, located in what is now Central Park. Established in the early 19th century, it was one of the first significant African American settlements in the city, featuring homes, churches, and schools. Despite its rich history, Seneca Village was displaced in the 1850s to make way for the creation of Central Park, a poignant reminder of the city’s evolving landscape.
