Built in 1765, the Morris-Jumel Mansion is Manhatt

Built in 1765, the Morris-Jumel Mansion is Manhattan's oldest house. Perched on the highest (or second-highest; I saw references to both) point in Manhattan, it was used by General George Washington as a headquarters during the Revolution, then again early in his presidency, when he held his first Cabinet dinner there. Aaron Burr also lived there toward the end of his life, after marrying Eliza Jumel.

Perched just up the road from Coogan's Bluff, the house also overlooks the site of the Polo Grounds, home to the New York Giants baseball team through 1957. A few blocks south sit the John T. Brush steps, used by fans to get to the ballpark and restored in recent years. The Polo Grounds Towers now occupy the site of the ballpark and dominate the view from the mansion's front porch and eastern grounds. - DC

Finally, a new post on dcbontheroad.com! I knew I would love @gatewayarchnps because, hello, midcentury modernist masterpiece - and our visit was just as fun and awe-inspiring as I hoped.

Plus, there's a statue of the true hero of the Lewis & Clark journey: Seaman the Newfoundland!
