    Architect Mortimer C. Merritt designed Nos. 3 and 5 Weehawken Street in 1876-77 for William H. and Alfred N. Beadleston, owners of the neighboring Beadleston & Woerz brewery, either as an investment or as housing for brewery workers. Each building held eight families above a store; by 1907 No. 3's store was an oil dealer. Their father, Ebenezer, had arrived in the city in 1837 and started selling Nash ales, the start of the family business.

    “…commissioned by William Henry and Alfred Nash Beadleston, owners of a neighboring brewery, either for speculation or as housing for brewery workers.”
