Plans have recently been announced to plans to convert a former MTA bus depot on East 126th Street and First Avenue in East Harlem into affordable housing including 730 apartments and a memorial for the African Burial Ground. Construction workers discovered a 17th century slave burial ground on the location. The bus depot now closed, began as a cemetery after Peter Stuyvesant ordered African slaves to build a 9-mile road from lower Manhattan to what was then an unincorporated part of the city known as Nieuw Haarlem.
