Karen, this occurred a few blocks from where I live, not sure if you knew where exactly I live. Gold St. which intersects John St. a block south of William was originally called Golden Hill St. After the Brits chopped down the first three Liberty Poles, the fourth one was erected on Isaac Sear's property on Beekman Slip, in the current South St, Seaport. The Sons of Liberty put an iron gridle around the pole which the Brits drilled trough and placed powder charge and blew it up, then dumped it at the tavern.
Hi Dave, I can't tell you how much I miss walking by there every day. Hope you guys in the SAR are all well! I will be missing you at Ft Washington and Evacuation Day.
