New York City Archaeological Repository

In collaboration with the Museum of the City of New York, the NYC Landmarks Preservation Commission (LPC) recently launched a digital archive of select artifacts from its archaeological collections. The database supplements a physical repository that houses hundreds of thousands of artifacts from over 31 sites throughout the city. While the physical holdings are only available to researchers and scholars, this project currently offers the general public access to material from 15 collections. Site visitors may browse the repository using the Archaeological Sites Map or by reviewing a list of excavations in Manhattan, Staten Island, Queens, and the Bronx. Thematic Digital Exhibitions are also available and provide insight into the information scholars have gleaned from certain items. Digital Exhibitions of note include Animals Among Us, Food and Drink in Colonial New York, Architecture through Artifacts, and Historic Toys.
