This is on the NW corner of 66th and Third. Now, near Bloomingdale's and Starbucks, this place little resembles the fortified clearing in the woods that it was in 1776.

Everything's near a Starbucks these days. Bloomingdale's is at 59th Street, or at least it was 40 years ago when I lived near there briefly. I never saw the sign.

I believe the plaque pictured was only placed there in the 1990s. There is an older one on 44th near the Yale Club put up by the DAR and the Yalies.
