No I don't think its kips bay. Manhattan was not that Hilly in that part of the island and I don't see any water around. British attacked from the river, which is apparently nowhere around.
I honestly don't see the problem critics had with this film on it's release. It's a gorgeously-shot, well written story, with a solid performance from Pacino. As a sign of the times, Annie Lennox shows up in one scene.
The only real bum note the film strikes is Donald Sutherland hamming it up as a villainous Redcoat.
When I saw the film I was convinced it wasn't finished. I was right. It's dreadful.

This film was terrible, and one of the reasons the UK film industry collapsed in the 1980's. It was made in the UK and is rabidly anti-British.
The Minuteman at 2.2t has a percussion cap musket, 60 / 70 years too early.
To include this in a close-up can only be described as "Epic Fail".

2:27 Percussion locks didn't exist yet, but in this film someone already has one. Strange.
