The monument’s main building, the Ted Weiss Federal Building, contains the remains of more than 400 Africans buried in the 17th and 18th centuries, just a portion of the largest colonial-era cemetery for people of African descent, both free and enslaved. The sacred site honors the contribution and forgotten history of African slaves in the development of colonial and federal New York.

The High Line is an elevated railway transformed into a public park on Manhattan's West Side. The park features lush horticulture, artworks, seasonal food vendors, community programming, and unique views of the Hudson River and New York City skyline. Please note that the High Line's hours vary by season.

The African Burial Ground became a National Historic Landmark in 1993. The African Burial Ground National Monument's story is both old and new: It began use in the 17th or 18th century but was only rediscovered in 1991. Our story is both the story of the Africans whose holy place this was, but also the story of the modern-day New Yorkers who fought to honor these ancestors.
