6. NYC Parks METAL OR CONCRETE Plaque near Time Wheel

In “parterre” planting bed. Acknowledges Lenape history in the history of New York City, amending the nearby Time Wheel NYC history in stone:

 “LENAPEHOKING (Lenape Homeland) 

For thousands of years before New Amsterdam and New York City, and continuing today, this very land is the Lenape homeland. Until genocide, clear cutting their villages, fields & sustaining forests, then forced removal, by the Dutch, English and then the early U.S. government, the Lenape Nation extended from the Hudson Valley to the Chesapeake Bay, the First People in our city.”
