Stage IB Archaeological Investigation of the Staten Island South Shore Y.M.C.A. Project Area, Borough of Richmond, New York. For: Y.M.C.A. of Greater New York. CEQR 94-BSA-052R

Report on the archaeological excavation of a proposed construction area at 3939 Richmond Avenue southeast of the Amboy Road intersection. Research pointed to the possibility of finding the late mid-late 19th century Journeay and/or late 19th-early 20th century Barrett residences on the property. Excavation turned up one pit possibly associated with the Barrett residence and the on-site playground may yet cover other archaeological resources, but no conclusive evidence was found to warrant further excavation of the site.

Field Support Of Dredged Material Management Alternatives for New York District Dredged Material Management Plan (DMMP). Archaeological Remote Sensing Survey Raritan Bay and Lower Bay New York Harbor Monmouth, New Jersey and Richmond County, New York. Su

Report on the potential effects on underwater archaeological sites of a dump site in New York Bay between Sandy Hook, NJ and Staten Island, NY. NY/NJ has been a place of intense maritime activity since the 17th century and many ships, potentially some of historic importance, have sunk in the area. A survey of the proposed dumping area identified four underwater sites that may be shipwrecks and should be avoided if possible. If these areas cannot be avoided, further examination of these sites through underwater archaeology is recommended.

Harborview Project Cultural Resources Documentary Study. For: Harborview Associates. CEQR 90-011R

Report on a proposed commercial development along the Arthur Kill about 300 feet west of the intersection of Arthur Kill Road and Richmond Valley Road. A former wetland area then a coal and lumber yard, the site has been extensively developed since the late 19th century and in the 1960s was deeply covered over by fill between 13-18 feet deep. As the project is not expected to go deeper than the layer of fill, no futher archaeological investigation of the site is recommended.

An Archaeological Assessment Of The Muss Waterfront Housing Development Project, Prince's Bay, Staten Island, New York. For: AKRF, Inc. CEQR 86-064R

Report on the proposed construction of the Muss Waterfront Housing Development site on Seguine's Point, Prince's Bay. Though the area's abundant oysters drew Indigenous Peoples and early European settlers, Joseph Seguine's construction of a mid-19th century palm oil and candle factory and the expansion of this factory into the S.S. White Dental Manufacturing Company in 1881 likely destroyed any archaeological resources from the area's early use. While preserving the factory buildings is not recommended, taking photos and tokens of the existing buildings to preserve the history of the site and doing minor archaeological testing for possible earlier sites is recommended.

Report Of The Stage 1B Archaeological Survey For The Mayflower Avenue Pump Station And Force Main Of The Oakwood Beach Water Pollution Control Project, County of Richmond, Staten, New York. For: O'Brien & Gere Engineers. CEQR 86-157R

Report on the proposed construction of a sewer line along Arthur Kill Rd west of Arden Avenue and across the West Shore Expressway and a pump station at the intersection of Arthur Kill Road and Huguenot Avenue. The proposed route of the sewer and preferred location of the pump station should have no affect on known archaeological resources as most of the area has undergone significant development. However, as the project area is known for historic and Indigenous Peoples settlement and initial tests suggest a possibility of deeply buried archaeological resources, further archaeological testing (bore tests) in advance of construction is recommended.

Report on the proposed sewer construction along Richmond Creek north of Richmond Road and to the east and west of Arthur Kill Road in Historic Richmond Town. Excavation uncovered possible 19th century stone wall foundations and many artifacts. The location of the unearthed stone walls near the sites of the early 18th century Treasure House and first County Court House and the late 18th century Dunn's Mill requires further archaeological investigation of the area to determine whether the walls are part of any important historic structure.

Staten Island Bridges Program- Modernization and Capacity Enhancement Project Goethals Bridge Phase IB/3 Geomorphological Analysis Report on Coring and Additional Radiocarbon Dating. Submitted to: Parsons Brinckerhoff Quade & Douglas, Inc.

Report on an investigation around the Goethals Bridge, Staten Island, to assess the potential for prehistoric archaeological resources. Testing of the surrounding area shows that the current shoreline area and the previously recorded Archaic Old Place site date not to the early Archaic but the Late Archaic and/or Early Woodland period. Because intervening environmental and human factors have prevented the preservation of prehistoric archaeological resources in the immediate project area, further testing would be fruitless. The revised date of the shoreline and the Old Place site suggests that a new chronology for the area should be constructed.

Charleston Plaza, Staten Island, New York, Environmental Impact Statement, Archaeological Analysis and Report. For: Sanford Nalitt & Associated Companies. CEQR 85-107R (John Vokral)

Report on investigation of 50 acres of land northwest of the Richmond Parkway and West Shore Expressway intersection. Many Indigenous Peoples sites spanning the Paleo Indian, Archaic, and Woodland periods have been found in the near vicinity of the project area. The property changed hands many times during the 19th and 20th centuries, but no structures were built within the project area. Accordingly, testing for prehistoric archaeological resources on the property is recommended.

Phase IB Cultural Resource Report, Amboy Road/Weir Avenue Staten Island, New York. For: R. Randy Lee. CEQR 84-116R (Joel Grossman)

Report on proposed construction adjacent to Amboy Road and Weir Avenue in the Pleasant Plains area. There are no documented Indigenous Peoples sites closer than one-half mile from the project area. Though archaeological resources from three late-19th century structures (two homes, one barn) may remain on the property, the author concludes that any recovered resources will not add to the history of the area. No archaeological excavation or further investigation is recommended.

The New York City Farm Colony Historical And Archaeological Sensitivity Evaluation. For: Georgy Lacey, AKRF, Inc. CEQR 85-327R [Multiple authors]

Report on the investigation of roughly 73 acres of the New York City Farm Colony site in central Staten Island bounded by Brielle Avenue, Eastman Avenue, Forest Hill Road, and Walcott Avenue. Previously the Martino family farm since the late 17th century, the property was purchased for an indigent care facility in the early 19th century. Today a New York City Landmarks Historic District, three additional sites on the Farm Colony property not currently designated warrant additional investigation: an early 19th century cemetery for the poor, an early 19th century farm complex, and a possible pre-Revolutionary War farmstead.

Phase IA Cultural Resource Survey For The College Of Staten Island At Willowbrook (CUNY Project No. ST104-084), An Historical And Archaeological Evaluation. Revised Report. CEQR 86-024R [Multiple authors]

Report on proposed development by the College of Staten Island on 216 acres of the Willowbrook Site now occupied by the Staten Island Development Center (formerly the Willowbrook State School). The Willowbrook State School was built in 1940 as a care facility first for mentally challenged people and then was used for soldiers and veterans. Research on the property's history turned up one 18th century farmstead, any remains of which were destroyed by construction of the Development Center, and a 17th century "wolf pit". One undeveloped area of the property could yield Indigenous Peoples archaeological resources and investigation into that area is recommended.

Phase Ia Archaeological and Historical Sensitivity Survey for the Proposed Richmond Avenue and Forest Avenue Shopping Plaza, Staten Island, New York. For Keypac Collaborative. CEQR 86-096R

Report on proposed development of an area bounded to the north by Forest Avenue, south by Vedder Avenue, west by Richmond Avenue, and east by the Willowbrook Expressway service road in Graniteville. The area was likely used by prehistoric peoples and a number of structures were built on the property in the 19th century, including a school, homes, and light industrial buildings. The subsequent development and alteration of the ground surface during the 20th century, however, has likely left little to no trace of the property's earlier use. No archaeological testing is recommended.

Report on proposed construction in an area bounded to the north by Hylan Boulevard and to the east/west by Sprague Avenue and Loretto Street in southwest Staten Island. The project area was occupied in the mid-19th century by the Van Name family. Archaeological excavation in the area of their farmstead, particularly where two depressions mark previous structures, is recommended. The presence of prehistoric sites in the project vicinity and the discovery of a stone tool in the project area also warrants archaeological investigation of the site.

Report on archaeological investigation of an area west of Joline Avenue between Amboy Road and Hylan Boulevard in Tottenville. Previous research suggested that prehistoric archaeological resources might be found on the property. One prehistoric artifact (a Jack's Reef corner notched projectile point) was recovered and it was found in association with 19th and 20th century artifacts. The project area is likely a former plowzone in which historic and prehistoric artifacts have been mixed. No further testing is recommended.

Report on archaeological excavation in an area bounded to the north by Hylan Boulevard and to the east/west by Sprague Avenue and Loretto Street in southwest Staten Island. Previous research suggested the possibility of uncovering prehistoric and mid-19th century Van Name family archaeological resources in the project area. Excavation confirmed Indigneous Peoples and mid-19th century (likely Van Name) occupation of the project area, however the prehistoric archaeological resources were disturbed and the historic artifacts not significant enough to warrant further testing.

Report on excavations conducted at the Page Avenue site located between Hylan Blvd, Bedell Ave, and Page Ave in Staten Island. Previous research suggested that the site may have held deposits associated with prehistoric groups and a 19th century farmstead. While excavations produced artifacts from both periods, the historic material was not considered substantial enough and the prehistoric material was considered too disturbed for either to be archaeologically significant; no further archaeological testing is recommended.

Report on proposed construction on either side of Edgewater Street between Clifton Street and Sylvaton Terrace. This property was occupied in the early-to-mid 19th century by the Low, Silva, and Stilwell families and was subsequently subdivided and sold multiple times through the early 20th century. By 1937, the "O'Brien Bro.'s Shipyard Corp'n" owned the eastern part of the property and constructed many buildings on the landfill that extended the property east. Only the western portion of the property may offer preserved prehistoric archaeological resources and excavation in this area is recommended.

Stage 1A Archaeological/Historical Sensitivity Study of the Page and Bartow Avenues Development, Staten Island, New York. CEQR No. 95DGS002R. [Multiple authors]

Report on the proposed development of land bounded north-south by Bartow and Camden Avenues and east-west by Eugene Street and Page Avenue in southwestern Staten Island. There are multiple documented Indigenous Peoples sites known in the vicinity. This suggests that Indigenous Peoples archaeological resources may be found within undisturbed portions of the project area. A barn and milk house were built on the property around the turn of the 20th century but likely left little significant trace before being demolished around 1925. Archaeological testing of the area for prehistoric resources is recommended.

Report on proposed development of an area bounded north/south by Anthony Street and Richmond Parkway and east/west by Warner Avenue and Winant Avenue, west of Woodrow. Numerous prehistoric sites in the vicinity suggest the possibility of finding Indigenous Peoples archaeological resources in the project area. Though the property is within the Sandy Ground Historic Archaeological District, no homes or other structures were built within the project area and thus it is not likely to hold any historical significance. No testing is recommended.
