The First Presbyterian Church, built in 1727 as Trenton's first dedicated house of worship, was occupied by Hessian troops during the Revolutionary War, with Colonel Johann Rahl and other Hessian soldiers reportedly buried in the cemetery. The original building was replaced in 1806 due to its ruinous condition, and then again in 1839 with a larger structure designed by Hotchkiss & Thompson and built over the existing cemetery, with signatories including President Martin Van Buren, New Jersey Governor William Pennington, and Trenton Mayor Charles Burroughs. The cemetery contains graves of important political, economic, and civic leaders from the early years of the nation and features mortuary art spanning the 18th and 19th centuries; the property has become a tourism destination and is designated as one of 150 Revolutionary War sites in New Jersey in preparation for the 250th Anniversary of the American Revolution in 2026.

A Discover NJ History License Plate grant was awarded to 120 East State to support website updates and enhancements, development and implementation of a digital outreach strategy, purchase of a literature display rack, and a banner promoting participation in the W3R route.
