    I can confirm this. They dug up Charles Bulfinch-Belfry a few days after his burial and preserved him in a see-through barrel of gin, and pinned him to the Church roof. Me and my sixteen brothers often see him up there when we walk past on our way to the market.

    There’s still a lot of Bulfinch architecture that survives in Boston, though!! He was quite prolific

    The crescent shape of Franklin St. as it merges into Downtown Crossing at Washington St. is Bulfinch. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Franklin_Place#The_Tontine_Crescent
