The Fraunces Tavern and Museum

November 2, 2009

The Fraunces Tavern and Museum in nearby Broad Street and Pearl Street is a Federal historic site. George Washington and many other important figures of the Revolutionary War made the Fraunces their “hang out”.

The museum is now hosting a special exhibit of one of the few copies of the Magna Carta from England. The 1215 document is the template upon which other documents were based, such as the Declaration of Independence.

Anthony Wellman, Communications Director for the museum gives us a tour of the tavern and exhibit. For more information, call (212) 425-1778

Oops. That’s not a Tiger.

In what could be the print newspaper mistake of the decade so far, on February 18^th, the Wall Street Journal posted a photo of Tiger Woods jogging. However, they cropped the wrong person and posted a white person in the print edition. The online version had the correct entire photo with Tiger and this anonymous jogging companion.
