A shared brick cornice ties 31 Peck Slip to its neighbors and to 240 Front Street
The pair at 29 and 31 Peck Slip, which predates 1852 and was built for the provisioner Harris Stone, is crowned by one corbeled roof cornice. It matches the cornice at 240 Front Street, which Stone also once owned, and it extends across 33 Peck Slip as well. The cornice has recessed rectangular panels and vertical brick corbels. The storefronts have been altered and keep few original openings.
“The corbeled roof cornice, spanning the two buildings, is a distinctive feature and similar to that at 240 Front Street, also once owned by Harris Stone.”
