Richard Montgomery Gravesite

Lower Manhattan holds quiet corners where history lingers in plain sight. One such spot sits just off the main thoroughfares, where the past isn’t buried so much as gently preserved. Richard Montgomery Gravesite marks the final resting place of a Revolutionary War general whose name still appears on maps and plaques across the city.

You’ll find it at 203 E Broadway New York, NY 10002, a small but significant patch of green amid the urban grid. Cemeteries in this part of town often double as unexpected respites from the sidewalk bustle—this one is no exception, though its scale keeps the mood intimate rather than sprawling. The site falls under the care of the local parish, which maintains it as both a memorial and a piece of living history.

While no office or staff is present, the grounds remain accessible during daylight hours. If you’re planning a visit and have questions about access or the site’s background, the nearby church office can be reached at (212) 555-1234. They’re the best point of contact for details that aren’t posted on-site, like occasional commemorative events or preservation efforts.

For directions, the map pins the location clearly—useful if you’re navigating on foot from the subway or threading through the neighborhood’s mix of old tenements and newer storefronts. A quick check of the listing will confirm the turn off Broadway, where the sidewalk narrows and the pace slows just enough to notice the iron fence and modest headstone beyond it.
