Seneca Village
Seneca Village is a former settlement in New York County, New York, recorded by the USGS Geographic Names Information System as a historical populated place.
What awaits
Seneca Village existed from 1825 until 1857, and was Manhattan’s first significant community of African Americans. By the 1840s, the settlement became a melting pot of ethnicity including Irish and German immigrants, as well as possibly Native Americans. The New York Census reported 264 persons living in Seneca Village. The village included churches, a school and several cemeteries. In 1857, the settlement was razed and demolished in order to create Central Park.
