While some authors contend Hale was hung at about 66th St. & First Ave., a British officer states he was hung in front of the Royal Artillery Park. Period British maps prove this was at Turtle Bay (present 45th St.) just South of Howe's Headquarters in the Beekman House and across from the Dove Tavern at the fourth mile marker.
