Mayor Hugh Grant couldn’t have spent time at the last Tammany Hall site at 44 Union Square East (now a Petco store) because it didn’t exist during his lifetime! thevillagesun.com/petco-to-rel...

This isn’t the last Tammany Hall site. The last one was at 233 Madison Avenue.

You misinterpreted Wikipedia. When Tammany lost its political influence, it couldn’t afford to maintain the 17th St building & it was sold in 1943. Tammany’s leaders moved to the National Democratic Club on Madison Ave/East 37th & the Society's collection of memorabilia went into a Bronx warehouse.

That may be true. But this one is at least standing.

Worst case: Mamdani supporters direct scavenger hunt participants from the Con Edison Building site to Union Square itself (lots of space for a crowd), just across the street from the Petco store (the last Tammany Hall building).
