Downtown Manhattan’s rich and varied history, from Colonial settlement to world-famous urban complex, spans close to four centuries. This compact area at the tip of Manhattan Island – half of it built on land reclaimed from surrounding waters of about one square mile – has played an outsized role in the development of both the city and the nation, and is rich in both memories and monuments.
