The Captain James Moore Pavilion
The Captain James Moore Pavilion, which stands adjacent to the meadow near the Preserve entrance, was erected by the Washington Crossing Park Commission in 1941. Moore, a 24-year-old officer with the New York Artillery, died Dec. 25, 1776, the day the Continental Army marched on Trenton. He is buried in the nearby soldiers’ memorial cemetery in Washington Crossing Historic Park.
