115 South Street

Constructed in 1840 for the prominent ship chandlery firm Slate, Gardiner & Howell, this 5 story, Greek Revival walk-up features the original, massive granite piers on both sides of the building with a molded granite lintel overhead. During the 1880’s when this building was home to a bar and lodging house, the ground floor was altered with cast-iron rectangular columns. The four upper stories are faced in the Flemish bond brickwork commonly found in the South Street Seaport Historic District.
