Financial District (New York, New York)

Want to visit these sites and other Hamilton-related landmarks in the Financial District with the help of an expert? Take Intrepid Urban Adventures' two-hour Hamilton Happy Hour Tour (from $40) that’s led by an incredibly insightful guide. The experience begins at the end of this prominent figure’s life with a stop at his gravesite, where you’ll learn more about his early years. 

A few blocks over, fans of the musical will surely be delighted upon seeing 59 Maiden Lane, which was formerly marked as number 57. The house that once stood here is famous for being the one that had “the room where it happens” and is where Thomas Jefferson and Hamilton discussed the Compromise of 1790. Other highlights include Federal Hall, a glimpse of the New York Stock Exchange, 40 Wall Street, Hanover Square, and Pearl Street (the city’s first paved thoroughfare). Things wrap up at Fraunces Tavern, where Vice President Aaron Burr and Hamilton attended a gathering a week before their fateful duel.
