Landmarked in 2000, 295 East 8th Street a.k.a. 127 Avenue B, opened in 1887 as the Children’s Aid Society, Tompkins Square Lodging for Boys and Industrial School. Designed by Calvert Vaux of the architectural firm of Vaux and Redford, in the style of High Victorian Gothic, the building is the oldest remaining property built for the use of the Children’s Aid Society. It may be the oldest remaining boarding house designed by Vaux, who was the co-designer of Central Park, architect for the Museum of Natural History, Metropolitan Museum of Art and countless other New York classics.

295 E 8th Street is a walk-up building with wide staircases in a prime East Village location on the corner of Avenue B and E 8th Street. The East Village is an eclectic neighborhood which houses artists, radicals, fashion lovers, and those who have lived in the neighborhood for decades and witnessed its many changes. Tompkins Square Park is smack across the street providing two playgrounds, a handball court, chess tables, a dog-run and a basketball court. The performances hosted by the park are as unique as its visitors: the annual lineup includes the outdoor drag festival Wigstock, the Howl Festival commemorating Allen Ginsberg, and the Charlie Parker Jazz Festival.
