17th Battery Gala: Born Green
Tuesday, June 5, 2012

“Born Green” in 1693…
“William Loring Andrews…tells us that the southwest extremity of Manhattan Island…was first laid out as a public park in the late seventeenth century. The Battery was constructed in 1693, and the work of filling the grounds…laying out an esplanade and pleasure ground began at about the same time.”
