What Life Was Really Like in 19th-Century NYC
-- Arts - Museum Exhibits
Venue: Merchant's House Museum
Cost: Adults: $10 Students: $5.00 Seniors: $5.00 Members: Free
The Merchant's House Museum is New York City's only family home preserved intact — inside and out — from the 19th century.
Built in 1832 just steps from Washington Square, this elegant red-brick and white-marble row house on East Fourth Street was home to a prosperous merchant family for almost 100 years.
Complete with the family's original furnishings and personal possessions, the house offers a rare and intimate glimpse of domestic life during the pivotal era of the 19th century when New York City was transformed from a colonial seaport into a thriving metropolis and the center of U.S. commerce.
