NEW WEB SITE ON-LINE:
Visit the FIVE POINTS HOME PAGE, a new interactive Web site featuring
historic images of New York City's legendary 19th-century slum, artifacts
from the ongoing Foley Square/Five Points archaeological project, and an
introduction to the complex story of this fascinating fragment of New York
history.
http://199.75.180.203:8080/fivept/fphome.htm
The Five Points Home Page is fairly graphic-intensive and is best viewed
with Netscape 2.02 or higher. A text-only version will be available
shortly. The site is currently geared to public outreach and education, but
we hope to be adding additional research-oriented components in the near
future. These will include a searchable database of selected census, city
directory, and tax assessment data, an artifact inventory, and scholarly
papers relating to the project. We look forward to your comments.
The Five Points Web site was developed by John Milner Assoc., Inc., under
contract to the U.S. General Services Admin. through Edwards and Kelcey
Engineers, Inc.
