The story

The Slave Market Historical Marker commemorates a site on Wall Street where a municipal market auctioned enslaved people of African ancestry from 1711 until 1762. The text notes that the structure was later renamed the Meal Market, and it describes the history of slavery in Manhattan and the city's first slave uprising nearby on Maiden Lane.
