NYC Municipal Archives. In 1854, a cholera outbreak in London led physician John Snow to create a map of the cases. Through this disease mapping he was able to pinpoint the source to a single polluted well on Broad Street, proving that it was a water-borne illness. When the same cholera epidemic hit the New York City region in 1866, the Metropolitan Board of Health used Snow’s methods to map the outbreak and establish sanitary restrictions. Although 1,137 New Yorkers died, this was considered a vast improvement over previous pandemics. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/545a686fe4b059216c7cb8cc/1758813754558-1TXPNSIJUCQO61N8JD9B/CholeraMaps_5068.jpg Blog - For The Record - The NYC Department of Health Celebrates 220 Years https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/545a686fe4b059216c7cb8cc/1758813759235-92JV1FDWNC7E14K82WY4/CholeraMaps_5069.jpg Blog - For The Record - The NYC Department of Health Celebrates 220 Years https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/545a686fe4b059216c7cb8cc/1758813760124-Y9TI70ENNGZNEH43XUEH/CholeraMaps_5072.jpg Blog - For The Record - The NYC Department of Health Celebrates 220 Years https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/545a686fe4b059216c7cb8cc/1758813763421-NSS0R504O08NU2DV4MRX/CholeraMaps_5074.jpg Blog - For The Record - The NYC Department of Health Celebrates 220 Years https://www.archives.nyc/blog/2025/9/19/the-nypd-aviation-unit-photograph-collection monthly 0.5 2025-09-19 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/545a686fe4b059216c7cb8cc/f8d02bd9-09de-4ba1-9ac2-452242781278/REC0116_A_764.jpg Blog - For The Record - The NYPD Aviation Unit Photograph Collection - Make it stand out REC0116_A_764: Statue of Liberty with Manhattan in distance, ca. 1974.

In partnership from 1876 until 1893, they developed buildings for the CAS that were intended to give a feeling of a “snug country inn.” The buildings usually displayed varied rooflines and included ornamental features that are reminiscent of Dutch architecture. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/545a686fe4b059216c7cb8cc/44a0dc5f-174c-4916-8b27-e17b485c51d1/terrace+floor+REC0042_1_02_110.jpg Blog - For The Record - Happy Birthday, Calvert Vaux! - Make it stand out Ceiling design for the Terrace Arcade, 1860.

While the market still had the required utilitarian aspects with stalls and manure pits, it was fitted with elaborate chandeliers and ornate decoration which led Architects’ & Builders’ Magazine to write that Horgan & Slattery had decided '“to abandon all former conventions” in its design. In 1928, the auction mart was sold to the R&T Garage Company, which installed two intermediate floors for parking and removed the balcony and ornate ceiling.

The “Great Bouwery” is number 1 on the map just above #16 (the Brewery). The key says “No1 Comp Bouwery met Een Traffelleyck Huys” [Company’s Bouwery with an excellent house]. Eventually this would become Stuyvesant’s farm. The farms given to freed Blacks in 1644 likely stretched from numbers 9 to 10 on this map. Jan Pietersen’s Plantation (#9) was just above Spring Street near Minetta Creek. It is possible Emmanuel had worked this land and was given the northern portion. Manatus Map [detail], 1639.

The path westward to the Hudson River became known as Sand Hill Road until it crossed Minetta Creek, and still exists past that point as Greenwich Avenue. Stokes thinks the 1644 cattle fence followed this path from Bowery to Minetta Creek. These paths connected Lenape villages, farms and hunting and fishing grounds.

Common Council Market Committee, NYC Municipal Archives. The number of markets in New York City doubled in the early 19th Century, and two new large-scale markets appeared. The Fulton Market was established in 1822 to replace the old Fly Market, but a new market building (shown here) was built in the 1830s. Washington Market in Tribeca was erected in 1813, with expansions in the 1820s and 1834 making it the largest wholesale market in the City. These markets were joined by Grand Street, Greenwich, Gouverneur, Centre, Essex, Franklin, Manhattan, Clinton, Tompkins, and Jefferson Markets. The Monroe Market would replace the Grand Street in 1836, and the Harlem Market was established in 1838, although De Voe notes a butcher shed stood at 120th Street and Third Avenue since 1807. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/545a686fe4b059216c7cb8cc/b0cebab9-aedc-4bab-984b-74cf17c9a44b/v-1859_4.jpg Blog - For The Record - From Marketfield to the Greenmarket, Part II: The Market Man - Make it stand out View of Washington Market, Fulton and Washington Street, 1859.

After the Civil War, the population of New York increased dramatically, putting enormous stress on the existing markets.

Again, we see the ties to New Orleans, indicating that she may really have had people there. When asked “Did you before last night see or know Michael Bonney?” She replied “I never saw him before in my life. I stopped on the area stoop of the house in McDougal Street, to tie up my stocking, and saw Bonney standing there as if listening to hear the music, and he spoke to me and asked me what was going on, and I told him I did not know unless it was a party. He then asked me where I was going, and I told him I was going on an errand, he then asked me if I lived in that house, and I told him I did not. He then took a silver half dollar piece from the pocket of his vest and handed it to me, and I knocked it out of his hand. He then stooped down and picked it up and put it in my hand again and tried to pull up my clothes. I knocked at the door, and a white woman came and opened the door and I rushed in, and he held on to me and charged me with stealing his money.” NYDA Case Files, NYC Municipal Archives. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/545a686fe4b059216c7cb8cc/356d0366-ae39-41f7-8fd0-3e1a5f04ef93/NYDA_5-10-1848_01-fr.jpg Blog - For The Record - The People vs Mary Jones: Rethinking Race, Sex and Gender through 19th-Century Court Records - Make it stand out Grand Jury indictment in the People vs. “Peter Savori,” 1848.

Department of Buildings Collection, NYC Municipal Archives. In the early 1900s the area around 14th Street had many nickelodeons and theaters competing for business. The Brady-Grossman Company featured Hale’s Tours, where patrons sat in simulated Pullman cars and watched films of picturesque railroad routes as if they were travelling. The “tours” became more and more sophisticated, with panoramas, sound effects, and a rocking motion making it feel like the “train” was moving; this seems to be an early version of the attraction. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/545a686fe4b059216c7cb8cc/1587129932247-4XNHUGH6F7XI5JGKI53J/%5Bimage+11%5D+doughnuts.jpg Blog - For The Record - In the Details Plan entitled “Additional Steel Support of IBM Units” for the Doughnut Corp. of America, 45 West 36th Street, 1954. J. Gordon Carr, architect. Department of Buildings Collection, NYC Municipal Archives. The Doughnut Corporation of America was founded in 1920 primarily to sell doughnut-making machines to bakeries. They later expanded to manufacturing doughnut mixes for home use as well as running a chain of coffee shops. They also founded the National Dunking Association in 1931 to encourage doughnut-eating. So it is really not too surprising that such innovators were also early adopters of the most modern (but heavy) technology. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/545a686fe4b059216c7cb8cc/1587129999779-CILDT1Y6P6XW2E6B7BK3/%5Bimage+12%5D+bear_and_son.jpg Blog - For The Record - In the Details A charming drawing for Bear & Son clothing store near Union Square, 50 East 14th Street, date unknown.

Muslin and cotton thread wall hanging. Embroidery by Diana Weymar. In the 20s and 30s girls at the Training School were trained in ‘Decorative Hand-work’ and ‘Cottage Home-Making’ among other things.This embroidery charts the ebbs and flows of words in culture (between 1800 and 2008) according to Google’s n-grams. While the label of being incorrigible is still used in NY as a subcategory of PINS (person in need of supervision) its overall popularity has decreased. In the current DSM we now have oppositional defiant disorder. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/545a686fe4b059216c7cb8cc/1582315752687-T69SERIT2KYVNTJPDNYM/library_m45.66j9re_boarding-homes_1944_00a.jpg Blog - For The Record - Incorrigibles — Bearing Witness to the Incarcerated Girls of New York Mayor’s Committee on Juvenile Delinquency, 1944.

But even these collections required researchers to separately search each series within the mayor’s papers for the relevant information on the subject or topic. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/545a686fe4b059216c7cb8cc/1538160650427-KJH0QLW3N74A51T1NXT8/image-asset.jpeg Blog - For The Record - Legacy Cataloging at the NYC Municipal Archives It was not a lack of information about the records that caused difficulties; if anything it was the opposite. The archivists discovered a plethora of sources for collection information—accession registers, card catalogs, shelf lists, microfilm targets, databases, lists—dating back to the 1950s, in every possible format ranging from hand-written penciled notes, to formal finding aids with folder and sometimes even item-level inventories. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/545a686fe4b059216c7cb8cc/1538160726751-1X02F40Q7WA44M04PKQN/image-asset.jpeg Blog - For The Record - Legacy Cataloging at the NYC Municipal Archives This typed inventory of materials received from the Mayor’s Office on May 14, 1958, provides an example of an intriguing and specific list of correspondence and a scrapbook, but with outdated location information.

It was made by John Miller, the chaplain of the fort from 1692-1695. He created a detailed description of the city and a map, but had to throw it all overboard when his ship was captured by the French. In prison, he recreated his map and writings, which were eventually published in 1843 as New York Considered and Improved. He clearly describes "On the North side are two large stone Points & therein about 8 Guns some mounted & some unmounted." The point on the bottom of the map is the western bastion known as the Oyster Pasty Mount. Note the street along the Wall is "The Single or Wall Street."

This decorative map shows the English fleet sailing into New Amsterdam in 1664, and it was presented to James the Duke of York, perhaps to request his patronage and name. Known as The Duke’s Plan, it was drawn by Robert Holmes, but his source was either the Cortelyou survey or an English spy, possibly Governor Winthrop. The wall on this plan simply crosses the island along Wall Street, but five cannon emplacements (bastions) are shown, as well as one in front of the Stadt Huys. The Water Gate and blockhouse are clearly shown as well, but the western wall in the 1661 Castello Plan is gone. As this map is stylized, and its source material unknown, its accuracy is in doubt, but the council discussions of February 1664 suggest that the river walls had fallen into disrepair. Contrary to recent claims, this was also the first map to show the North River as "Hudsons River."

The minutes from August 25th, 1664, the day the Burgomasters and Schepens were informed of the English fleet at Boston preparing to sail for New Amsterdam. The marginal Appostille is from General Stuyvesant, who concurred that “The proper fortifying of this place is not only granted..., but also earnestly recommended.” In a possibly apocryphal story, Stuyvesant was presented with an early draft of the articles of surrender on August 22nd, but no such event was recorded in the official record. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/545a686fe4b059216c7cb8cc/1493762334980-HW114WVNKL51CDL9LIZJ/image-asset.jpeg Blog - For The Record - The Dutch & the English Part 4: Invasion?

Its vision of Peter Stuyvesant, standing among residents of New Amsterdam who are begging him not to fire on the English warships, has entered the popular imagination, but there is little in the historical record to suggest that Stuyvesant was ready to go down fighting.

Articles about the transfer of New Netherland on the 27th of August, Old Style, Anno 1664. The articles were agreed to on September 8th, by six deputies commissioned by Director-general Stuyvesant and his council, and seven English commissioners, including Admiral Richard Nicolls. They are commonly called the articles of capitulation and Nicolls described them as the “Articles, Whereupon the Citty and Fort Amsterdam and the Province of the New Netherlands Were Surrendered," but this broadside, probably printed in Holland, used the word "Overgaen" meaning transfer.

Named for the English admiral who took New Amsterdam, The Nicolls Map (ca. 1664-1668), is the first English survey of their new territory. It is often regarded as a crude map, but the English were not ones to disregard fortifications, and the map clearly shows only two small bastions left along the wall and no western wall.

The whole approach would have been 12 feet of obstacles before reaching the wall. At the top of the wall the horizontal line seems to indicate a fraise, another row of stakes to impede scaling the wall. This version of the wall was never constructed, as it was more expensive than anticipated. The built version had larger earthworks, a ditch 5 feet deep and 11 across, and a 9 foot high plank wall. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/545a686fe4b059216c7cb8cc/1484522852387-KJ04K9YDSZYCVHW9QOO5/fortifications.png Blog - For The Record - The Dutch & the English, Part 3: Construction of the Wall (1653-1663) Illustration of stockade fences from an 1910 British army manual. At first glance the example at the lower right seems almost an exact duplicate of our little plan from 1653, except in this case the ditch seems to be a trench interior to the fort and the breastwork seems to be for firing position.

The shoreline along Pearl Street was plank bulkhead, and may have had a raised wall at times. Bastions were placed every 250 feet along the north side. The total length was around 3,200 feet.

The edict banned the sale of alcohol on Sunday before 2 p.m. and every day after 8 p.m., and enforced strict penalties for drawing a knife or sword in anger. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/545a686fe4b059216c7cb8cc/1416847295926-NJ4PZ4LJ4DOPEWDBE9C2/NAR_BK1_002.jpg Dutch Manuscript - Ordinances of New Amsterdam, page 2-3 (p.2) WHEREAS the Director General and Council are informed, that several private traders, trading to the South and licensed by this Government, go with their cargoes of linen, wampum and other wares inland to the Minquaes’ country, whereby trade is not only spoiled, but also great damage is done to the traders, who remain with their vessels at the usual trading places and whereby the Indians might be induced for the sake of the goods to kill and slay such persons, which would bring mishap and war upon this country,—Therefore for the best service and interest of the West India Company and of this district, we forbid and command, as we hereby do, that henceforth none of our inhabitants shall go inland with his cargoes or other wares, but shall carry on his trade at the usual trading places. Done at Fort Amsterdam in N. N., June 18, 1647. (p.3) WHEREAS daily a great deal of strong liquor is sold to Indians, which before now has caused great difficulties to the country, and because it has become necessary to prevent a recurrence of these difficulties in time,—Therefore the Director General and Council of New Netherland forbid all tapsters and other inhabitants henceforth to sell any wine, beer or strong liquors to the savages, to draw it for them or give it in barter in any manner or form or under any pretext whatsoever,... Everybody is also warned and forbidden, to damage lands, orchards and gardens, be it in fences or fruits, ... All inhabitants of New Netherland are also charged and commanded, well to fence their lands, that the cattle may not do any damage.... Done at Fort Amsterdam in N.

It has been resolved, that the duties for each merchantable beaver skin shall be 15 stivers, two halves for one whole, three thirds ditto, for each otter and bearskin, 15 stivers, each elk skin 15 stivers, other peltries of minor value according to circumstances... July 23, 1647. (p.4-5) As we have seen and remarked the disorderly manner, hitherto and now daily practiced in building and erecting houses, in extending lots far beyond their boundaries, in placing pig pens and privies on the public roads and streets, in neglecting the cultivation of granted lots, the Director General Petrus Stuyvesant and Council have deemed it advisable to decide upon the appointment of three Surveyors, to wit: the Honble Lubbert van Dincklagen, the Equipage Master Poulus Leendersen and Secretary Cornelis van Tienhoven, whom we hereby authorize and empower, to condemn all improper and disorderly buildings, fences, palisades, post, rails etc. and to prevent their erection in the future.... Done at the meeting in Fort Amsterdam, ... July 25, 1647. (p. 5) The Director General and Council of New Netherland having noticed, that there are brewers in and about the City of New Amsterdam, who tap beer and sell it by the small measure; which may cause, that the beer, by them brewed and tapped, is not properly taxed and the excise not paid for it,—Therefore the said Director General and Council command, as they hereby do, that all the brewers in and about this City shall not tap or sell beer by the small measure, also that no tapsters shall be allowed to brew or have beer brewed for him; all under the penalty of losing all such stock, as may be found in the brewers or tapsters house and besides of not being allowed to do business for…. months. Done January 12, 1648. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/545a686fe4b059216c7cb8cc/1416847541528-W7HGRX3V6EM8SHE57PW7/NAR_BK1_004.jpg Dutch Manuscript - Ordinances of New Amsterdam, page 6-7 (p. 6) It has been noticed and seen by the Director General of New Netherland, Curaçao and the Islands and by the Honble Council, that some careless people neglect, to have their chimneys properly swept and that they do not take care of their fires, whereby lately fires broke out in two houses and further troubles may be expected in the future, the more so, as most of the houses here in New Amsterdam are built of wood and roofed with reeds, also as in some houses the chimneys are of wood, which is very dangerous.... henceforth no wooden or merely plastered chimneys shall be put into any house between the Fort and the Fresh Water;... That the foregoing may be well observed, there are appointed for this purpose as firemasters: from the Honble Council Commissary Adrian Keyser, from the community Tomas Hall, Marten Krigier and George Wolsey, to visit, whenever they please, the chimneys in all houses between this Fort and the Fresh Water,... and if they find them neglected and foul, they shall immediately, without contradiction, levy and collect a fine of three guilders... this fine to be applied to the purchase of fireladders, hooks and buckets, which are to be procured at the first convenient opportunity.... January 23, 1648. (p. 7-9) ...WHEREAS we see and are informed, that our former orders issued against unreasonable and intemperate drinking at night and on the Sabbath of the Lord, to the shame and derision of ourselves and our nation, are not observed and obeyed, as we intended and meant, we renew them herewith and command, that henceforth they shall be maintained and executed according to their tenor and contents. Meanwhile the reasons, why our good orders and well-meant laws have not been observed according to their tenor and contents are, that this way of earning a living and the easily made profits therefrom please many and divert them from their first calling, trade and occupation, so that they become tapsters and that one full fourth of the City of New Amsterdam has been turned into taverns for the sale of brandy, tobacco and beer. This causes not only the neglect of honest handicraft and business, but also the debauching of the common man and the Company’s servants and what is still worse, of the young people from childhood up, who seeing the improper proceedings of their parents and imitating them leave the path of virtue and become disorderly. .. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/545a686fe4b059216c7cb8cc/1416847541418-62G7IPPOLMUHY3H3V0SW/NAR_BK1_005.jpg Dutch Manuscript - Ordinances of New Amsterdam, page 8-9 ...Add to this the frauds, smuggling, cheating, the underhand sale of beer and brandy to Indians, as shown by daily experience, may God better it, which may only lead to new troubles between us and them.... Therefore we, the Director-General and Council as aforesaid ordain and make the following regulations on the subject of tapsters and tavern-keepers. 1. Henceforth no new taproom, tavern or inn shall be opened... 2. The taverns, taprooms and inns, already established, may continue for at least four consecutive years, but in the meantime the owners shall be obliged to engage in some other honest business at this place.... 3. The tavern-keepers and tapsters are allowed to continue In their business for four years at least, but only on condition, that they shall not transfer their former occupation.... 4. Item the tavern keepers and tapsters shall henceforth not be allowed, to sell or give beer, wine, brandy or strong waters to Indians or provide them with it by intermediaries.... 5. To prevent all fighting and mishaps they shall daily report to the Officer, whether anybody has been hurt or wounded at their houses, under the penalty of forfeiting their business and a fine of one pound Flemish for every hour after the hurt or wound has been inflicted and been concealed by the tapster or tavern-keeper. 6. The orders, heretofore published against unseasonable night tippling and intemperate drinking on the Sabbath, shall be obeyed by the tavern-keepers and tapsters with close attention.... 7. They shall be held, not to receive any beer or wine or distilled waters into their houses or cellars, directly or indirectly, before they have so reported at the office of the Receiver.... 8. Finally, all tavern-keepers and tapsters, who intend to continue in their occupation, shall eight days after the publication hereof present themselves in person and give their names to the Director General and Council and there solemnly promise, that they will faithfully obey, what rules have been or may be made....

March 16, 1648. (p. 10) WHEREAS the Honble Director General and Council of New Netherland daily see, that the goats and hogs here are doing great damage in orchards, gardens and other places around Fort Amsterdam, which not only prevents the cultivation of fine orchards and the improvement of lots, but is also an injury to many private parties,... henceforth no hogs or goats shall be pastured or kept between Fort New Amsterdam and its vicinity and the Fresh Water, unless within the fences of the owners, so made, that the goats cannot jump over and damage anyone.... March 10, 1648. (p. 11) ...WHEREAS we have seen and learned, that notwithstanding our previous orders and proclamations concerning the keeping of the holy Sabbath according to Gods holy Word, it is not observed as we intend and desire, but is profaned and desecrated in various manners, to the great scandal, offense and reproach of this community and neighboring strangers, who visit this place,... in order to avert, as much as is in our power, the wrath and punishment of God, evoked thereby and by other misbehaviors, renew and amplify herewith our previous proclamations and ordinances, having arranged for the further observance of the Sabbath with the knowledge of the servant of God’s Word, that henceforth a sermon from God’s Word shall be preached in the afternoon, as in the forenoon, with the usual Christian prayers and thanksgiving... forbidding meanwhile during divine service all tapping, fishing, hunting and other usual occupations, handicrafts and business, be it in houses, cellars, shops, ships, yachts or on the streets and market places.... We also hereby forbid, that anyone may on the said day give himself up, to his disgrace and the offence of others, to excessive drinking....

Therefore the Honble Director General and Council deem it necessary, to renew the former orders and hereby strictly to forbid, as we hereby do, the sale, barter or gift of strong drinks under whatever name to Indians and if anybody is hereafter found to do it, even on the testimony of an Indian,... he shall receive arbitrary corporal punishment besides paying the fine,... for it is better, that such evildoer be punished, than that a whole country and community suffer through him.... May 13, 1648. (p. 13) WHEREAS the Honble Director General and Council have seen and learned, that many of the Scottish merchants and small traders, who from time to time come over in the ships from the Fatherland, do not nor intend to do anything else, but to injure trade with their underselling, by selling their goods quickly,... Therefore, to prevent such injury to the trade,... it is ordered, that henceforth all merchants, Scots and small traders, who come over in the ships from the Fatherland and intend to trade here,... shall not be allowed to do any business in the country, unless they remain here in New Netherland for three consecutive years and besides build here, in the City of New Amsterdam, a decent burghers dwelling house, each according to his means.... 18th of September, 1648, at New Amsterdam. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/545a686fe4b059216c7cb8cc/1416847556359-5PHRSBPTJOTUQISAUQKP/NAR_BK1_008.jpg Dutch Manuscript - Ordinances of New Amsterdam, page 14-15 (p. 14) In order to prevent fires the Honble General and Council of New Netherland charge and order the fire masters of the City of New Amsterdam to make visits of inspection everywhere and to see, whether everybody is keeping his chimneys clean by sweeping and if they find anyone not doing it, to collect the fine of 3 fl., to be applied according to our proclamation of January 21.... September 28, 1648.... (p. 14) Great complaints are daily made to the Director General and Council by the Indians or natives, that some inhabitants of New Netherland set the natives to work and use them in their service, but let them go unrewarded after the work is done and refuse, contrary to all international law, to pay the savages for their labors. These Indians threaten, that if they are not satisfied and paid, they will make themselves paid or recover their remunerations by other improper means,— Therefore, to prevent all trouble as much as possible, the Director General and Council warn all inhabitants, who owe anything to an Indian for wages or otherwise, to pay it without dispute and if in the future they employ savages, they shall be held liable to pay upon the evidence and complaint of Indians, (who for good reason shall be considered credible witnesses in such cases), under the penalty of such a fine, as the circumstances shall indicate as proper.... September 28, 1648.... (p. 15) WHEREAS the Director General and Council daily see and notice, that some inhabitants of New Netherland harbor and entertain in their houses and dwellings the servants of the Honble Company and other servants, when they have run away from their masters, also those, who come from our neighbors, which causes, that many laborers, doing their duties unwillingly, are given the means and have the road opened to run away, which is done every day,— Therefore to prevent this as much as possible, the Director General and Council advise and warn everybody, not to entertain or lodge any servant of either the company or private parties, living here or elsewhere, for longer than 24 hours.... October 6, 1648... https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/545a686fe4b059216c7cb8cc/1416847558907-LSINAGS35WWSUI4XDUO9/NAR_BK1_009.jpg Dutch Manuscript - Ordinances of New Amsterdam, page 16-17 (p. 16) WHEREAS the Director General and Council have long ago warned the community by proclamation, to improve their lots on the Island of Manhatans, which formerly were measured out too large and great for building thereon and whereas some persons desire to build, but cannot find a suitable place, where they conveniently may erect a house,— Therefore the said Director General and Council have deemed it advisable, to inform everybody for the last time, that they must properly improve their lots or in default the Director General and Council will give them to the persons, who are willing to build here in the City of New Amsterdam,... December 15, 1648. (p. 17) Seeing, that former orders concerning measures and weights are not observed by some, whereby the good inhabitants are greatly defrauded, the Director General and Council inform all wholesale and retail merchants, also bakers and others, who sell by the ell, [Two feet] measure or weight, not to use in delivering or receiving any other ell, weight or measure, than that of Amsterdam and that everything may be done decently, the Director General and Council advise all inhabitants and traders to procure between now and the first of August next coming genuine Amsterdam ells, measures and weights. In the meantime those, who at present have some weights, must bring them to the Company’s Warehouse in Fort Amsterdam, to be weighed and measured there, so that in the future nobody of our people may suffer any loss.... we charge and authorize herewith the Fiscal Hendrick van Dyck to inspect after the 1st of August next coming all ells, weights and measures as often, as he thinks fit....

Thus done etc., Novbr. 8, 1649. (p.19) ...Know Ye, that many complaints have been made to us by many people, in regard to the scarcity of coarse bread and light weight of white bread, with which the good inhabitants cannot be sufficiently supplied by the bakers. The cause of it being, that the savages or natives of this country take the white bread from the bakers without inquiry for or scrutiny of the black bread or price in strung wampum, which the inhabitants cannot do, as they have no such wampum. Consequently greed and the desire for greater profits cause the savage and barbarous natives to be accommodated with the best before the Christian nation and therefore the Director General and Council, desiring to provide for the best and in the most convenient manner at this time, ordain and hereby direct, that henceforth and until further orders no baker shall bake fine bolted or white bread or cakes for sale or sell to natives and Christians under forfeiture of the baked white bread and a fine of 50 Carolusguilders,...

Novbr. 8, 1649. (p. 21) The Director General and Council have learned, that various clandestine abuses and frauds are practiced in the sale and transfer of real estate, such as houses, yards, lots, and other land, to the prejudice of older creditors. Therefore they herewith charge their Secretary and in his absence his first Clerk, not to pass and sign any conveyance of real estate, unless the same has first been reported to the Director and Council on a regular Court day and been approved by them.... February 7, 1650. (p. 21) The Director-General and Council have consented, on the request of the bakers, that provisionally for the accommodation of the community they may bake white bread, but not cakes or cracknels, provided that they bake said white bread conform in weight with the rules of the Fatherland.... April 14, 1650.   https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/545a686fe4b059216c7cb8cc/1416847587678-TG0JR3TGU9NB53IBRTZQ/NAR_BK1_012.jpg Dutch Manuscript - Ordinances of New Amsterdam, page 22-23 (p. 22) The Director General and Council of New Netherland to All, who shall see these presents or hear them read, Greeting. WHEREAS we see and for some time past have seen the decline and depreciation of the loose wampum, among which is found much unpierced and only half finished, made of stone, bone, glass, shells, horn, nay even of wood, and broken, which causes many inhabitants to complain, that with it they cannot go to market and buy any commodities, not even a little white bread or a mug of beer, from the traders, bakers and tapsters. Therefore, wishing to make provisions in this matter to the best of our abilities, we have resolved for the promotion of trade and the common welfare of the inhabitants, that henceforth no loose wampum shall be current or be considered good pay, unless strung upon a wire, as hitherto it has usually been done .... Done, resolved and decided at our meeting in Fort Amsterdam in N. N., this 30th of May, 1650.   (p. 23) The Director General and Council of New Netherland to All, who hear, see or read these presents, Greeting. Experience has shown, that this decayed fortress, formerly in fair condition, has mostly been trodden down by hogs, goats and sheep and we are now engaged, in obedience to the orders of our Masters and Patroons, in repairing the same, but it is to be feared, that the fort may again be damaged by goats, sheep, hogs or other animals climbing upon the walls,—Therefore the Director General and Council hereby warn all and every inhabitant of this place, not to allow hogs, sheep, goats, horses or cows to run free between the Fort, the Company’s Bouwery at the end of the Heeren Wegh [Broadway] now tenanted by Tomas Hall, and the house of Master Isaack Allerton, without herder or driver, except within their closed fences, under a fine of 6 fl. for the first time for each horse, cow, etc., found within the aforesaid limits on the public streets near the Fort, twice as much for the second time and confiscation of all for the third time.

Daily complaints of the inhabitants inform us, that our former orders, concerning badly strung wampum, made for the benefit and convenience of the inhabitants on the 30th of May 1650, are not so observed and executed, as we intended, but that such pay has been refused even for small profits by shopkeepers, brewers, bakers, tapsters, tradesmen and laborers to the great confusion and inconvenience of the inhabitants in general, as there is at the present time no other current money to help in the daily small trade,— Therefore to assist the inhabitants once more in this matter the Director General and Council ordain, conform to our former ordinance, that badly strung wampum shall be current money and be accepted as such by everybody without distinction or exception for small and necessary commodities, used in the house and that it shall be current up to the sum of 12 fl. and less in badly strung wampum, in sums between 12 and 24 fl. in half bad, half well strung beads, from 25 to 50 fl. one third bad, two thirds good wampum and in greater sums according to the conditions, made by purchaser and seller, under a fine of 6 fl. for a first refusal, 9 fl. the second time, two pounds Flemish and closing of the business the third time, conform to our previous orders.

December 31 1655. (p. 29-30) Sad experiences have from time to time shown, that the separate dwellings of the country people, built plainly against the orders and good intentions of the Company and their representatives here, have led to many murders of people, the killing of cattle and burning of houses by the savage natives of this country; all which might be prevented with Gods assistance, if the good inhabitants of this Province would settle together in villages, neighborhoods or hamlets, like our neighbors of New England, who are never or only seldom, because of their dwelling together, subjected to the manifold and general troubles, as we and our nation, which in the first place come upon us, as the merited punishment of our sins by God and then because we give an inducement thereto to the savages by the separate dwelling of the countrypeople, while we in time of need cannot come to the assistance of the one or the other because of the distance between the places,... https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/545a686fe4b059216c7cb8cc/1416847634331-TRPAIGJZRIZH0VXZFRUV/NAR_BK1_016.jpg Dutch Manuscript - Ordinances of New Amsterdam, page 30-31 (p. 30) The Director General and Council hereby not only warn their good subjects, but also order, that they shall move closer together in villages, neighborhoods and hamlet during the coming spring, that they may be better protected against attacks and surprises by the savages through their own efforts and through the faithful soldiery of the Director General and Council....

This is contrary to the general political and ecclesiastical rules of Our Fatherland and besides such gatherings lead to troubles, heresies and schisms. Therefore to prevent this the Director General and Council strictly forbid all such public or private conventicles and meetings, except the usual and authorized ones, where Gods reformed and ordained Word is preached and taught in a meeting for the reformed divine service conform to the Synod of Dort followed here as well as in the Fatherland and other reformed churches of Europe, under a fine of 100 pounds Flemish to be paid by all, who in such public or private meetings, except the usual authorized gatherings, on Sunday or other days presume to exercise without due qualification the duties of a preacher, reader or precentor and each man or woman, married or unmarried, who are found at such a meeting, shall pay a fine of 25 pounds Flemish. [One pound Flemish equal to 6 fl.] The Director General and Council do not however hereby intend to force the consciences, to the prejudice of formerly given patents, or to forbid the preaching of Gods holy Word, the family prayers and divine service in the family, but only all public and private conventicles and gatherings, be they in public or private houses, except the already mentioned usual and authorized reformed divine service. In order that this order may be the better observed and nobody plead ignorance thereof the Director General and Council direct and charge their Fiscal and the inferior Magistrates and Schouts, to publish it everywhere in this Province and prosecute the transgressors, whereas we have so decreed it for the honor of God, the advancement of the Reformed service and the quiet, unity and welfare of the country in general.

Third. As regards the baking and selling coarse and white bread, both not of proper weight nor at the fixed prices, the Director General and Council renew and amplify their former order on this subject,... If it is found, that bread lighter in weight is sold without the previous knowledge, order or consent of the Magistrates or at a higher price, such bread is to be confiscated and besides a fine of 25 pounds Flemish shall be levied for the first time, double the amount for the second time and for the third offense 600 fl. with absolute closing of the business. Further the bakers and people, who make it their business to sell coarse or white bread to Christians and Indians, shall not be allowed to mix sifted out bran in large or small quantities with the coarse bread, but bake such bread from flour as it comes from the mills nor shall they bake different kinds of bread for Christians and Indians, as it has formerly been specified,... Fourth. Having been informed of and considering, that frauds may occur as well in the tapping as in the baking business and excuses be made to cover them, because so far no guild nor certain number is known, therefore to prevent such frauds, the Director General and Council ordain, that henceforth no one shall be allowed to do business as tapster or baker, unless he has first addressed himself to the Magistrates, under whose jurisdiction he lives and has received from them a license for the business,...

N. have learned by frequent complaints of this and that inhabitant, that timber for piling, for building houses and necessarily used for other purposes is stolen and carried off, whereby such work is hindered and cannot be completed and great injury as well as damage is done, and to prevent this their said Honors hereby strictly forbid under arbitrary correction for the first offense, that anybody should dare do it or have it done by either his servants or children or anybody else and the parents, whose children are inclined to do it and who allow it without punishing them, whereby they grow up in their wickedness and finally cannot give up their daily habits, shall suffer the punishment of their children, as if they themselves had committed the deed, without favor or pity....

N. against the many tapsters and tavern-keepers, who to keep their business going detain such persons, as for their own sake and advantage would better attend to their occupations and protect their families honorably with God’s help, but cannot make up their minds to it, because of the pleasures they find in drinking and jovial company by which they not only spend their daily earnings, but also when out of money pawn the goods serving to the necessities of their families and thereby obtain the means of continuing their usual drinking bouts. Their wives and children suffer in consequence and become a burden to the Deaconry of this City.

This is proved by the fact, that some people do not hesitate, to say even in the presence of the Officer: “Oh, it costs only one pound Flemish in wampum.” To prevent this and further accidents from such quarrels, the said Director General and Council hereby strictly forbid the making of noise on the streets, quarreling, hitting each other, because such things can only cause provocation and trouble, even murder, under the penalty, that the transgressor hereof shall pay as fine for a simple blow with the fist 25 fl. and if he causes blood to flow four times as much and if it happens in the presence of the Officer, of a Burgomaster or Schepen double the amount to be applied as is proper.

The Burgomasters are directed and authorized, to summon after the publication of these presents before them in the City hall the owners of the lots in person, without regard to their position and have them make the appraisal, which their Secretary is properly to record and the Treasurer is to receive the revenue. In case of opposition or refusal they are civilly to reprove the refractory person and tax his lot according to value and circumstances, under the condition, that the owner shall have the choice of keeping the lot, taxed by the Burgomasters, if he will pay as aforesaid the 15th penny, or of surrendering it to them for the behoof of the City at the price, put on it by the Burgomasters, while on the other side it is left to the device of the Burgomasters, either to take the lot at its owner’s price for account of the City and sell it at this price to anyone, who desires and is ready to build, if the owner himself is not willing to build, conform to the ordinances or else to leave it to the owner, until it is built upon by him or others, when this burden, for good reasons laid upon unimproved lots, shall be taken off. To promote the increase of population by their living closer together, the strength and welfare of this City still more, the Director General and Council ordain, that henceforth no dwelling houses shall be built near and under the walls or gates of the City in this jurisdiction, until the lots, hereinabove spoken of, have been properly improved. Thus done etc etc., January 15, 1658. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/545a686fe4b059216c7cb8cc/1416847742193-ZLZI3VQX5IRNDJS9O8LX/NAR_BK1_029.jpg Dutch Manuscript - Ordinances of New Amsterdam, page 56-57 (p. 56) The Director General and Council of N. N. are not only informed, but also notice, that some persons do not proceed with the solemnization of their marriage as they ought to, even after the bans have properly been proclaimed three times, but delay it from time to time, not only for weeks, but even for months, which is quite contrary to the good order and customs of our Fatherland. To prevent the irregularities arising from such delays, the Director General and Council herewith order, that all persons, who have their bans proclaimed three times and against whose marriage no legal opposition exists, shall solemnize it within at least a month after the third proclamation of the bans or else to appear before the proper authorities and give the reasons for not doing so, all under the penalty of 10 fl. fine for the first week after expiration of said month and 20 fl. for each following week, until they have reported the reason of their disobedience. Furthermore no male and female shall be allowed to keep house together like man and wife, before they have legally been married, under a fine of 100 fl. or as much more or less, than their position admits and all such persons shall be amerced anew by the Officer every month, according to the orders and customs of the Fatherland....

Therefore everybody, who uses such measures and weights in his business for receiving or delivering wares, is hereby informed, that he must come with them to the City Hall on the morning of the last of August, where the Committee of this Court will sit from 9 to 11 o. c. A. M. and 2 to 5 o. c. P. M. to mark the measures and weights brought,... August 27, 1658. (p. 59) We have seen and noticed, besides we hear daily complaints among the community over, such depreciation of the wampum, that it is almost impossible to make bargains in it with bakers, brewers, peddlers, shop-keepers, laborers and others. Wishing to remedy this trouble to the best of our ability for the promotion of trade and the general welfare of the inhabitants we have, with the knowledge and approval of the Director General and Council, resolved and decreed, that henceforth, when differences arise between man and man, wampum shall in this City be worth: 8 white or 4 black beads of good wampum equal to one stiver; besides in cases of existing debts, payable in wampum, the debtors are allowed six weeks time, in which to pay their creditors in 6 white or 3 black beads for the stiver....

We must also dread, that the high prices for goods, even of the most necessary commodities, such as beer and wine, shall continue and be excused by the pretext of too great a disparity between beavers and wampum. To prevent and remedy this as much as possible the Director General and Council see no better means or expedient, than to declare once more, as they have already done several times, to wit, that wampum is only merchandize, bought, sold or bartered by the measure or for a guilder, as parties may agree and that a payment in wampum in sums above 20 fl. shall not be held valid in law, unless a written agreement or acknowledgment of the parties convinces the judge.... Therefore to prevent any further clamors and complaints over the high prices and to regulate the price of commodities, like bread, beer and wine, which in time to come may be changed and lowered, the Director-General and Council have, by and with the advice of the Burgomasters of this City, resolved and now ordain, that the brewers, bakers, as well as shopkeepers and chandlers shall sell daily household commodities at three prices, to wit for silver, beaver or wampum, as the latter has at present been reduced all over the Province,... https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/545a686fe4b059216c7cb8cc/1416847752738-IC62ILI5OZ377S7VAXB7/NAR_BK1_032.jpg Dutch Manuscript - Ordinances of New Amsterdam, page 62-63 (p. 62) The tapsters shall sell the vaan [two quarts] at 6 stivers in silver, 9 in beavers, 12 in wampum; the pot of French wine at 18 st. in silver, 24 in beavers and 36 in wampum; the pot of Spanish wine at 24, 36 and fifty respectively; the quartern of brandy at 5, 7 and 10 resp.

That what has been or may be sown or planted be not destroyed and trodden down by cattle.... henceforth no garden, sown or planted land shall be stripped of posts, rails, clapboards or other fencing, under the penalty, for him, who is found to do it wholly or partially, of being whipped and branded for the first offense and of being punished with the rope until death, without distinction of person.... October 9, 1655, renewed December 30, 1658, and again renewed January 7, 1659.

Underground, archeologists have found evidence of the plots of houses and gardens, Amsterdam yellow brick, and seeds or pollen from plants. The plants and trees in the 3D model are based on these findings.
