Merchant’s House Museum

The Merchant’s House Museum, known formerly as the Old Merchant’s House and as the Seabury Tredwell House, is the only 19th-century family home in New York City preserved intact — both inside and out. Village Preservation has fought hard to prevent construction next door to the museum which could endanger the landmark.
