New York City Landmark Building
One of the finest and most impressive structures in the South Street Seaport Historic District, this stately building, a designated New York City Landmark, was erected in 1840 for Hickson W. Field, a commission merchant. Unlike the other Greek Revival buildings in the District, this structure is entirely faced in granite. The large scale and restrained use of decorative features make this building one of the most outstanding examples of Greek Revival commercial architecture in the city.| HM Number | HM2DCD |
