  1. 1827

    Wells's 1827 Federal house at No. 92 is later raised to three stories

    No. 92 Barrow Street was one of four Federal houses James N. Wells built in 1827 on Trinity Church land. Like Nos. 90 and 94, it gained a third floor in the decades after. The change is easy to read in the wall: the original Flemish-bond brick gives way to plainer running bond above the old roofline, and a bracketed cornice now crowns the house.
