Merchant Jacob B. Herrick buys No. 14 from builder Joseph Depew and moves in
Joseph Depew built No. 14 East 10th Street in 1839 and sold it to Jacob B. Herrick, a merchant, who made it his home. The house keeps its pilastered doorway with palmetto capitals, its wide stoop and its original iron handrailings. Its small original attic windows also survive, unlike at its neighbors Nos. 10 and 12, which got studio windows.
“He sold No. 14 to Jacob B. Herrick, a merchant, who made his home there.”
