Thaddeus Kosciuszko National Memorial

Unsung champion of freedom. Read about this guy.

One of the few parks devoted to relatively humble inside life of the early post colonial urban America. Beautiful neighborhood that can transport you through time. Finally, if you are Polish or Polish-American this is a valuable touchstone for the community's importance and value to American history.

This is an amazing man and by giving him his own museum we insure that his legacy will remain. Any person who helped at the battle of Saratoga which was the major turning point of the war deserves his own museum (besides Benedict Arnold). Enjoy and learn.

Not much here, just the guy's bedroom. I had never heard of th guy before. Interesting historical stop. The nation's smallest park.

As an American of Polish descent, one raised in panhandle Florida and who has lived in New York for 20 years, it is sad how few monuments we have to our forefathers of foreign birth. In New York there is a bridge named for Kosciuszko but no one really seems to know what his role was during the Revolutionary War. And here in New York, unlike Philadelphia and Boston, we have preserved far too little of our pre- and Revolutionary history. It is a real shame, though few that come after will likely even notice.
