Trinity Church is down on lower Broadway (at Wall St.). The current building is the third one, built in 1846. (Its spire was the highest point in NYC until 1890.) Among the people buried here in the churchyard are Robert Fulton, Albert Gallatin (the founder of NYU), and Alexander Hamilton—Founding Father, bad shot, and current pop-culture icon.

ABC Wednesday—G is for "gravestones"
| These are in Père Lachaise cemetery, one of the most beautiful, peaceful spots in Paris. Though it makes for a good photo op, it also saddens me to see how some of the graves have fallen into a sorry state. [To see more ABC posts, go here.] |

Photo Hunt—"flat"
| In the church of Santa Croce, in Florence, gravestones are set flat in the floor. In some parts of the church, they're cheek by jowl (so to speak), and hard to avoid—but I still can't bring myself to walk over them. Not because it's creepy; it just doesn't seem fittin' somehow.
