Random Fact of the Week
Mannahatta (“land of many hills”) is the name used by the Lenape people who inhabited the island of Manhattan before the first Europeans arrived. The aim of Mannahatta Project is to reconstruct the ecology of Manhattan when Henry Hudson first sailed in 1609 and compare it to what we know of the island today.
