    Alexander Ritchie, a dyer, had this house built in 1826; he also owned No. 754 down the block. It has since been completely remodeled with a new brick front and a high parapet. The 1969 historic district report says that the three-story result looks quite modern even though it hides a very early house.

    “…it actually represents the complete remodeling of a very early house, erected in 1826 for Alexander Ritchie, a dyer, who also owned No. 754.”
