392 West Street // 6 Weehawken Street

Izgrađena 1834. godine, ova šarmantna kuća dimenzija 28,25 × 28,84 stope, koja je pod zaštitom spomenika, gotovo je neizmijenjena i izgleda kao sredinom 19. stoljeća, sa svojim strmim krovom i vanjskim stubištem na ulazu iz ulice Weehawken.

Ova drvena kuća obložena šindrom, visoka dvije i pol etaže i površine 2400 četvornih stopa, navodno je najstarija kuća u Greenwich Villageu koja još uvijek stoji. Sve njezine različite namjene tijekom dva stoljeća odražavaju goleme promjene koje su se dogodile u ovom dijelu West Villagea, samo nekoliko koraka od rijeke Hudson. Priča o kući na adresi 6 Weehawken Street (392 West Street) počinje 1830-ih. Tada je na mjestu nekadašnjeg državnog zatvora Newgate nastala kratka ulica Weehawken.

Nakon zatvaranja zatvora Newgate, grad je odlučio prenamijeniti zemljište u tržnicu voća i povrća, mesa i ribe, nazvanu Greenwich Market — jednu od mnogih tadašnjih tržnica na otvorenom uz rijeku Hudson — omeđenu ulicama Christopher i Amos, kako se u 19. stoljeću zvala današnja West 10th Street. Tijekom 1920-ih, za vrijeme prohibicije, na adresi 6 Weehawken nalazio se „Billie’s Original Clam Broth House”, a 1940-ih ondje je bila trgovina s radnom odjećom, platnenim rukavicama, duhanom i neobičnim izborom raznih potrepština za pomorce i lučke radnike.

S pročeljem prema ulicama West Street i Weehawken te namjenom koja dopušta i komercijalnu i stambenu uporabu, ovaj svestrani mali dragulj čeka svoju sljedeću prenamjenu.

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.
