The Bowery is the oldest thoroughfare on Manhattan Island, preceding European intervention as a Lenape footpath, which spanned roughly the entire length of the island, from north to south. When the Dutch settled Manhattan island, they named the path Bouwerie road – “bouwerie” (or later “bouwerij”) being an old Dutch word for “farm” – because it connected farmlands and estates on the outskirts to the heart of the city in today’s Wall Street/Battery Park area.
In 1654, the Bowery’s first residents settled in the area of Chatham Square; ten freedmen and their wives set up cabins and a cattle farm there. Petrus Stuyvesant, the last Dutch governor of New Amsterdam before the English took control, retired to his Bowery farm in 1667. After his death in 1672, he was buried in his private chapel. His mansion burned down in 1778 and his great-grandson sold the remaining chapel and graveyard, now the site of the Episcopal church of St. Mark’s Church in-the-Bowery.
In her Journal of 1704-05, Sarah Kemble Knight describes the Bowery as a leisure destination for residents of New York City in December:
