First Time Coming to Jamaica, New York – Did You Know?
YESTERDAY
Jamaica Avenue served as an ancient trail for tribes from the far off Ohio River and Great Lakes, who came to trade skins and furs for wampum. Early settlers gave the Native Americans two guns, a coat, and powder and lead, in exchange for the land between the old trail and “Beaver Pond”, later to be called Baisley Pond. Dutch Director-General Peter Stuyvesant declared the area “Rustdorp” when granting the land patent in 1656.
The English took the area in 1664, and called it “Jameco”, or Yamecah, which was the name attributed to the local Native Americans there, and added it to the county of Yorkshire. In 1683, when separating the Province of New York into counties, Jamaica was the county seat of Queens County, an original county of New York.
Jamaica was a trading post for farmers and their produce by 1776, and for over a century, horse-drawn carts rolled along Jamaica Avenue, or then King’s Highway.
TODAY
Jamaica is a neighborhood of the Queens, New York City borough settled under Dutch rule in 1656 in New Netherland, then under British rule as the village of Jamaica. It has been known as one of the predominantly African American neighborhoods in Queens, but recently has been undergoing a sharp increase of other ethnicities. A high concentration of West Indian immigrants, there are also Indians, Arabs, and many long-established African American families.
Jamaica is not at all related to the Caribbean nation of Jamaica, even though a lot of residents are immigrants from Jamaica – the name is only a coincidence. Derived from “Yameco”, it is a distortion of a word for “beaver” in the Lenape language that was spoken by the Native Americans who lived in the area at the time of the first Europeans.
PRIME LOCATION
Jamaica Avenue is sometimes called the “Ave”, and it is the busiest thoroughfare. Broadway Junction in Brooklyn, near the boundary of the East New York neighborhood is where it begins, and it enters Jamaica east off of Van Wyck Expressway, passing the Joseph Addabbo Social Security Administration Building, courthouses and the Queens Library, in addition to discount stores.
Another main thoroughfare of Jamaica is Hillside Avenue, served by the F train from Sutphin Boulevard to the 179th Street terminus. Hillside Avenue runs past Ozone Park, along the length of Jamaica, and into Queens Village and Nassau County, as a wide six lane street with much commercial activity.
Every few blocks, a transition of one ethnic enclave to another occurs.
QUALITY OF LIFE
Jamaica has the private, Roman Catholic University founded by the Vincentian Fathers called St. John’s University, in addition to Queens College/CUNY, which is a Senior College of the City University of New York.
Jamaica’s Central Library of the Queens Borough Public Library is the nation’s highest circulation public ary system. Some famous residents have been Salt-n-Pepa, rappers; Joseph Simmons (Run), rapper/pastor; Darryl McDaniels (DMC), rapper; Russell Simmons, entrepreneur/producer; Khandi Alexander, dancer/actress; and 50 Cent, rapper/entrepreneur.
