1. Fraunces Tavern (1719)
Fraunces Tavern is more than just a building; it’s a cornerstone of revolutionary America. Its Georgian architecture preserves the echoes of history, most famously as the site where George Washington bid farewell to his officers. Today, the tavern stands as a living museum, inviting visitors to step back into New York’s colonial roots. Every brick and beam tells a story of resilience, patriotism, and the city’s enduring spirit.
