There is a geocache here at this location, which is how I found this place. The plaque says, "Old Merchant's House of New York. Built in 1831-32 by Joseph Brewester as a row house. Purchased in 1835 by Seabury Tredwell, a merchant, and occupied by his family until 1933. This house is the only 19th century house in Manhattan to survive intact with its original furniture and family memorabilia. The parlors are historic examples of Greek Revival architecture. Restored in 1979, the house has been a museum since 1935."
