Want to know where Shaft starring Samuel L. Jackson, Jessie T. Usher and Regina Hall was filmed at Thomas Paine Park - Triumph of the Human Spirit in New York, United States? Start scrolling.
In 1991 construction workers excavating the foundation for a Federal office building at 290 Broadway and Reade Street made a startling discovery—they came across the intact remains of more than 400 persons interred long ago at the African Burial Ground. Following an extensive archaeological survey, a portion of this historic site was preserved as a National Historic Landmark. Triumph of the Human Spirit, a monumental sculpture by Lorenzo Pace, and other commemorative features in the vicinity are intended to honor this important legacy of the city’s early history.
