1810
Two small Federal brick houses stand by about 1810 on what is now 225-227 West Broadway
The three-story brick dwellings at 113 and 115 Chapel Street, about 15 and 20 feet wide, were probably built in the first decade of the 1800s, and the landmarks commission dates the property to about 1810. They were later joined into a single commercial building, and their fronts were rebuilt several times in the twentieth century and are now stuccoed.
“…probably constructed in the first decade of the nineteenth century, were built as No. 113 and No. 115 Chapel Street.”
