392 West Street // 6 Weehawken Street

Bygget i 1834, sidder denne bevaringsværdige 28,25 ft x 28,84 ft charme næsten uændret fra måden, den så ud i midten af det 19. århundrede med sit stejlt hældende tag og side trappe ved Weehawken-indgangen.

Dette to og et halvt etagers hus med planker, 2400 SF, siges at være det ældste hus, der stadig står i Greenwich Village. Og alle dets forskellige inkarnationer over to århundreder afspejler de enorme forandringer, der fandt sted i denne del af West Village, kun skridt fra Hudson River. Historien om 6 Weehawken Street (392 West Street) begynder i 1830'erne. Det var dengang den lille Weehawken Street blev skabt på det tidligere sted for Newgate State Prison.

Efter at Newgate blev lukket, besluttede byen at omdanne ejendommen til et marked for grøntsager, kød og fisk kaldet Greenwich Market (et af mange udendørs markeder langs Hudson River på det tidspunkt), begrænset af Christopher Street og Amos Street, det 19. århundrede navn for nutidens West 10th Street. I 1920'erne, med forbuddet i kraft, blev 6 Weehawken til "Billie's Original Clam Broth House", og i 1940'erne en butik, der solgte arbejdstøj, lærkhandsker, tobak og en mærkelig samling af diverse, som blev eftertragtet af sømænd og havnearbejdere.

Med facade både mod West Street og Weehawken, og zonet til både kommercielt og boligformål, venter denne alsidige lille perle på sin næste inkarnation.

392 West Street // 6 Weehawken Street

Built in 1834 this Landmarked 28.25 ft x 28.84 ft charmer sits almost unchanged from the way it looked in the mid-19th century with its steeply pitched roof and side staircase on the Weehawken entrance.

This two and a half story shingled, 2400 SF wooden house is said to be the oldest house still standing in Greenwich Village. And all of its various incarnations over two centuries reflect the enormous changes that took place in this part of the West Village, just steps from the Hudson River. The story of 6 Weehawken Street (392 West Street) begins in the 1830s. That's when tiny Weehawken Street was created on the former site of Newgate State Prison.

After Newgate was closed, the city decided to turn the property into a produce, meat, and fish market called Greenwich Market (one of many open-air markets along the Hudson River at the time) bounded by Christopher Street and Amos Street, the 19th century name for today's West 10th Street.In the 1920s, with Prohibition in effect, 6 Weehawken became "Billie's Original Clam Broth House" and in the 1940s a retail shoppe carrying work clothes, canvas gloves, tobacco, and a strange assortment of odds and ends desired by seafarers and dockwallopers.

With frontage on both West Street and Weehawken, and zoned for commercial as well as residential, this versatile little gem awaits its next incarnation.
