Guided Tour of the Merchant's House Museum

Explore Manhattan's "best-preserved" (The New York Times) 19th-century home and learn about the domestic life of a prosperous merchant family from 1835 to 1865, as New York City transformed from seaport to thriving metropolis. You'll visit four floors (including the newly opened Servants Quarters) of this Federal and Greek Revival style row house — virtually complete with the family's original furnishings and decorative arts.Photographs by Bob Estremera.
