Ellis Place and the Little Shop Tea Room
Ellis Place originated as the Ellis Estate, which in 1851 was sold to local investors who divided the 13-acre property into 66 lots. Ellis Place, lined with gracious Victorian homes, is arguably the Village's first planned residential boulevard, offering proximity to Pleasant Square and downtown.
The property at the northeast corner of Ellis Place and South Highland Avenue once held the large Stick Victorian style house built around 1850 by David McCord, Jr., descendant of one of the tenants on the Philipse Estate in 1750. In the early 1900s, Sarah Beatty, proprietor of the "Little Shop Tea Room" moved her business from Spring Street to this location, where she both lived and worked. The house was razed in the 1930s.

Ellis Place se creó como Ellis Estate, que en 1851 se vendidó a inversionistas locales que dividieron la propiedad de 13 acres en 66 lotes. Se podría decir que Ellis Place, bordeado por sus elegantes casas victorianas y ofreciendo proximidad a Pleasant Square y el centro urbano, fue el primer bulevar residencial planificado.
La gran casa de arquitectura estilo Stick de la époqua victoriana tardía, construida cerca de 1850 por David McCord, Jr, descendiente de uno de los inquilinos de la hacienda Philipse en 1750, una ez estuvo en la esquina noreste de Ellis Place y South Highland Avenue. A comienzos de 1900, Sarah Betty, propietaria del salón de té "Little Shop" trasladó su negocio de Spring Street a esta localidad, donde vivió y trabajó. La casa se arrasó en los 1930s.
