Fraunces Tavern - Revolutionary site with ghost stories

Fraunces Tavern is the site where George Washington bade farewell to his officers in December 1783, a documented Revolutionary War event that anchors the building's historical significance. Over the centuries the tavern and museum have been the focus of numerous ghost stories and reports of unexplained noises and apparitions attributed to its long history. These reports are part of local urban-legend lore and are presented by tour operators and popular media, but they remain anecdotal and unverified.
