Hello and welcome back to Breakfast with Mom! Today I want to tell you about Seneca Village. Seneca Village was a community in the early 19th century located in what is now Central Park, New York City. Established around the 1820s, it was one of the first predominantly African American communities in the city. The village was home to both African Americans and some Irish and German immigrants. It would later be known as Central Park.
