Duration: 10 mins
2. Greenwich Village
Aaron Burr House: Step outside Aaron Burr’s former residence, nestled on one of the Village’s most charming streets. Discover how Burr lived after the duel, his fall from political grace, and the rumors of his complex private life.

3. Greenwich Village
Louisa Schuyler “Lincoln Home”: This historic home was once the site of the "Lincoln Home," where Louisa Lee Schuyler — the great-granddaughter of Philip Schuyler — helped care for wounded Civil War soldiers.

4. Greenwich Village
Aaron Burr’s Horse Stables: Here you'll find what remains of Aaron Burr’s personal horse stables — one of the rare physical links to his daily life. You'll learn about Burr’s business dealings, love of horses, and how he juggled politics with entrepreneurial ventures in early New York.

5. Greenwich Village
Weehawken Dueling Grounds (Photos Only): Through rare archival images from the Library of Congress, you'll get a visual glimpse of the steep bluff in Weehawken, New Jersey, where Hamilton and Burr met in their fatal duel.

6. Financial District
Federal Hall National Memorial: Outside Federal Hall, once the nation’s first capitol building, you’ll explore the powerful roles both Hamilton and Burr played in shaping early American government.

7. Financial District
Trinity Church with Alexander, Eliza, and Philip Hamilton Tombstones: Stand before the final resting places of Alexander Hamilton, his wife Eliza, and their son Philip.
