Bowling Green is a small park in Lower Manhattan, at the foot of Broadway. It is the oldest public park in New York City, and where the Charging Bull bronze sculpture is located.
Bowling Green is form where Broadway splits into two. The eastern branch becomes Whitehall Street while the western branch State Street. Immediately south of Bowling Green is the Alexander Hamilton U.S. Custom House building, housing the National Museum of the American Indian and the United States Bankrupcy Court. There once was a road, on the southern edge of the park, also called Bowling Green. It has since been paved over with cobblestones, as its area was needed for the entrance to a subway station.
Bowling Green is as old as New York City itself. During the Dutch colonial era, it was a cattle market, from 1638 to 1647. The idea to set up a park, to include a "bowling green" was hatched as early as 1733.
