Background

edit

It is a 2+12-story wood-frame structure, five bays wide, with a large central chimney, and a centered entry framed by sidelights and pilasters, and topped by an entablature. It was built circa 1815, probably by Nathaniel Montgomery, its first owner, as a tenement house, evidenced by the unusual room arrangements in the interior. It is the oldest known surviving tenement house in the city.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.[1]
