Hamilton's Sweet Project - The History of the Hamilton Grange

oin the Hamilton Grange National Memorial and the Alexander Hamilton Awareness Society in commemorating Alexander Hamilton's birthday. This talk, given by Hamilton Grange National Memorial's Lead Ranger, Vladimir Merzlyakov, takes you on a journey from an idea in Hamilton's mind, to the construction of one of New York's oldest homes, to the marvelous engineering feat of relocating it to its present site in 2008. This mansion was the only home that Alexander Hamilton built in his life, completing its construction in 1802.

The Hamilton Grange National Memorial, also known as The Grange, is a National Park Service site in St. Nicholas Park, Manhattan, New York City, that preserves the relocated home of U.S. Founding Father Alexander Hamilton. The mansion includes a restoration of the interior rooms and an interactive exhibit on the newly constructed ground floor for visitors. The Hamilton Heights subsection of Harlem derived its name from Hamilton's 32-acre estate there.

Park Ranger Vladimir Merzlyakov has been with the national park service as Park ranger for 12 years. Currently Lead Ranger at Hamilton Grange National Memorial, he has been providing tours at the Grange for the past nine years.
