    By mid-century the South Street row at 108-113 makes room for cotton brokers, ship chandlers and sailmakers

    The row at 108-113 South Street first held merchants and grocers. As the neighborhood grew more crowded by about 1850, the report says the merchants had to give up space to a range of tradesmen, among them cotton brokers, ship chandlers and sailmakers, who occupied different parts of these buildings.
