10.4.20 Lunchtime drawing: I love the history of New York! Here’s a historic building in Brooklyn, “The Old Stone House Building is a reconstruction of the 1699 Vechte-Cortelyou House. Located in Washington Park, on the border of Park Slope and Gowanus in Brooklyn, it marks the place where the original Dutch farmstead stood and the culminating engagement of the 1776 Battle of Brooklyn took place.”

#Repost @archtober ・・・ Archtober has jumped on the ferry to visit @hhtnyc's Staten Island's 4 historic sites! The first stop is the 19th century Victorian Gothic cottage, Clear Comfort or better known as the @aliceaustenhouse. Take in the amazing views and feel inspired to take photos of your own. We know Alice and Gertrude would love it! Did you know that @historicrichmondtown is the only NYC restored & functioning historic town and farm? Mostly Federal style, learn and experience how the everyday citizen helped build America! Visit the Greek revival @seguinemansion where it feels as if Gatsby could have thrown a party or two especially with the peacocks parading the grounds. The last stop on the SI trip is @conferencehouse. The Billop house is an Early Colonial style home where the Continental Congress and Admiral Lord Howe tried to come to a peaceful cessation, but no arrangement was made and the Revolutionary war continued for 7 more years. #hhtnyc #archtober #statenisland #silive #sihistory #aliceaustenhousemuseum #historicrichmondtown #seguinemansion #conferencehouse #ilovestatenisland #nychistory #architecture #siarchitecture #historyofarchitecture #newyorkcity

The Little Red Lighthouse and the (great gray) Washington Bridge—in much the same foggy conditions the beloved children's book recounts. The lighthouse, owned by @NYCParks, was originally called the Jeffrey's Hook Light. It is a #NYCLandmark, is listed on the US National Register of Historic Places, and is part of the Historic House Trust of New York City. 📷: @dandavenportnyc⁠ ⁠ #SeeYourCity #NYCgo #ILoveNY @hhtnyc Fonte: @nycgo (em Tijuca, Rio De Janeiro, Brazil) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9AYELRF11N/?igshid=1ou8xjt2p8kir

#Repost @archtober Starting in the Boogie Down, @hhtnyc has taken over Archtober's IG for the day! The Bronx is home to 4 of 23 historic house sites under the Historic House Trust of NYC umbrella. Starting with the 19th century Greek revival @bartow_pell mansion in the heart of Pelham Bay Park, Bartow-Pell Mansion home and garden is truly picturesque. Heading west to visit two of the Bronx County Historical Society (@bronxhistorian) sites are the Valentine-Varian House and Edgar Allan Poe Cottage. Valentine-Varian House is an 18th century Georgian style home and where you can learn about the diverse and interesting history of the Bronx. Edgar Allan Poe Cottage is a 19th century wood frame farm cottage where he lived, loved and lost his beloved wife Virginia. The modest cottage is where he wrote some of his notable poems "Annabel Lee" and "The Bells." Last stop in the Bronx is the mid-18th century Georgian manor of @vchmnyc. Van Cortlandt House Museum was the center of a wheat plantation, but during the Revolutionary War it was a strategic location for both Colonial and British armies to use as a command center. #hhtnyc #archtober #thebronx #bronxhistory #bpmm #valentinevarianhouse #poecottage #vchmnyc #ilovethebronx #nychistory #architecture #nyarchitecture #historyofarchitecture #newyorkcity (at Morris-Jumel Mansion)

Oldest house remaining in Manhattan! From @bigcitybrant - # 89 of 111 (75/111 in book) — Morris-Jumel Mansion — Manhattan’s oldest house sits on top of “Sugar Hill,” at the highest point in Manhattan. It was originally built in 1765 for British Colonel, Roger Morris, but he and his wife fled the home when the Revolutionary War was under way. George Washington moved in with his patriots and made the home their headquarters for a short while during the war. The excellent views from Mount Morris made this the ideal place for Washington to lead his troops into the Battle of Harlem Heights. In 1810, affluent French aristocrat, Stephen Jumel bought the mansion. After Jumel died, his wife Eliza took over the estate and lived there until she died. The Morris-Jumel Mansion still stands today, and is used frequently for jazz concerts, educational classes, festivals, and banquets. The home is also a museum and open to all. @111places @travelnyc @our_nyc_ @morrisjumel @hhtnyc @historicnyc #nationalregisterofhistoricplaces #historichomes #historicnyc #revolutionarywar #donttreadonme #historybuff #oldesthouse #georgewashington #111places #morrisjumelmansion #sugarhill #battleofharlemheights Tell us your story and share your homes' photos at BrickStory.com. #BrickStory, #storystylesoul, #architecture #historicpreservation, #househistory, #architecture, #designer, #preservation, #historichome, #oldhouselove, #realestate #americanhome, #vintagelife, #americanhistory, #americanpride, #storyteller (at Manhattan, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/BoEfw16nBbi/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1bzxcrc2pyxjm
