history!

as you probably already know, the city is currently tearing up fulton street, in some sort of effort to make things better. while digging, they recently uncovered at old-timey well from the 17th-century farm of new york's first native-born mayor, stephanus van cortlandt. they also found a bird head about some old dutch teapot pieces. you can read all about it here.
