392 West Street // 6 Weehawken Street

Itinayo noong 1834, halos hindi nagbago ang kaakit-akit na bahay na ito, na may sukat na 28.25 ft x 28.84 ft at kinikilalang makasaysayang pook. Hawig pa rin nito ang anyo noong kalagitnaan ng ika-19 na siglo, taglay ang matarik na bubong at hagdanan sa gilid papunta sa pasukan sa Weehawken.

Sinasabing ito ang pinakamatandang bahay sa Greenwich Village na nakatayo pa rin. Ang dalawang-at-kalahating-palapag na bahay na yari sa kahoy, may mga dingding na balutan ng shingles at lawak na 2,400 SF, ay nagkaroon ng iba’t ibang gamit sa loob ng dalawang siglo. Sinasalamin ng mga ito ang malalaking pagbabagong naganap sa bahaging ito ng West Village, ilang hakbang lamang mula sa Hudson River. Nagsisimula ang kuwento ng 6 Weehawken Street (392 West Street) noong dekada 1830. Noon ginawa ang makitid na Weehawken Street sa dating kinaroroonan ng Newgate State Prison.

Matapos isara ang Newgate, nagpasya ang lungsod na gawing pamilihan ng mga produktong bukid, karne, at isda ang lugar, na tinawag na Greenwich Market. Isa ito sa maraming pamilihang nasa labas na matatagpuan noon sa tabi ng Hudson River. Napapaligiran ito ng Christopher Street at Amos Street—ang tawag noong ika-19 na siglo sa West 10th Street ngayon. Noong dekada 1920, sa panahong umiiral ang pagbabawal sa alak, naging “Billie’s Original Clam Broth House” ang 6 Weehawken. Noong dekada 1940 naman, naging tindahang nagbebenta ng damit pangtrabaho, guwantes na lona, tabako, at sari-saring kakaibang gamit na hinahanap ng mga marino at manggagawa sa pantalan.

May harapan sa West Street at Weehawken, at zoned para sa komersiyal at residensiyal na gamit, naghihintay ang maraming-gamit na munting hiyas na ito sa susunod nitong yugto.

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.
