Inscription.
Sullivan Street, named for the Revolutionary War general, John Sullivan, has three surviving Federal-style houses. This building was erected in 1832 on what was once part of the farm belonging to Nicholas Bayard, Peter Stuyvesant’s brother-in-law. It features an elaborate door surround with unusual sidelights that are divided by carved wood enframements which simulate cloth sash curtains drawn through a series of rings.
