This site is located right next to the Moorestown Trust Company (Subway & Starbucks businesses today). I like the quaintness of this house. It is very compact and narrow in comparison to the other buildings in the immediate area, but this does not take away from its contributory style: It is an absolutely beautiful building.n The site is advertised as a soon to open ice cream parlor.

Located at 37 East Main Street in downtown Moorestown. This is one of 351 contributing buildings/structures to this historic district.

The Department of the Interior sent me the following narrative/information on this house:
"c.1860. 2 1/2-story, 3-register Late Greek Revival-style frame residence. Temple-fronted, end pilasters. First floor porch, dog-eared surround, side glazed and paneled double door. 6/6 double hung sash, paneled shutters at first floor, louvered above. Bracketed cornice, two quarter lunettes in semicircular opening in tympanum. Side polygonal bay. Property fronted by cast iron fence on stone foundation wall. - Contributing.
