Description

New Visions of Old New York explores the lives of women, enslaved people and Native Americans—and how they came to shape the culture of the Dutch West India Company settlement, which is now New York City. The exhibition features an interactive 3D map from the New Amsterdam History Center’s Mapping Early New York project alongside 17th-century records from the New York City Municipal Archives, which help tell the story of these groups' integral role in the City’s formation.
