Would you shoot a Lunar Eclipse w foreground or by itself?

Ill be in a great area for the 96% partial lunar eclipse this month but im debating whether or not to shoot it with a foreground or not. I shot a lunar eclipse before with a telephoto lens with just the moon in the shot and got the whole sequence. I now have a 100-400mm lens which is bigger than that other time so it could be more detailed this time around. Im in New England and trying to find a spot where the moon will be behind or near a subject id like is moee challenging than I thought itd be because of the south/ SE placement of the moon when its at its peak.

Most lighthouses dont seem like itll work with a telephoto lens, and Boston seems like it could be tough too, based on the moon placement. I'd like to use a telephoto lens because I want to make the moon bigger in the frame, but i could use my 28mm on my R10 if I really needed. Do you think its really worth going through the trouble of finding a spot, and using Photopills to get that perfect shot with a foreground element, or just shooting the lunar eclipse?
