When Pigs Fly: Big Ham Hovering Over Harlem


Thursday, May 29, 2008, by Joey

The greatest show in town right now is up in Harlem, where Alexander Hamilton's historic home is—as previously mentionedhanging out over Convent Avenue before the mansion is moved to its new home in nearby St. Nicholas Park. Tht move won't happen until June 7, so there's plenty of time to check out this curious little scene. A Curbed tipster sent us the above photos, including one from Hamilton Terrace showing the rear of the site where the house used to sit. It's like we're witnessing a gradual, painful divorce of inanimate objects. Won't someone think of the children?!
