Called “one of the most important buildings in the Historic District,” the Captain Joseph Rose house dates back to the 1780s, making it one of the oldest residences in the entire city. The Georgian structure features a handsome Flemish-bond brick façade with brownstone details, a mansard roof and charming dormer windows. Captain Rose was an importer of mahogany wood from Honduras who spent much of his time at sea. His son ran an apothecary shop here, and later, a shoe store occupied the ground floor. By the 1860s, the building housed a hotel and saloon. Converted to four luxury homes in 1997, the self-managed condominium offers a landscaped shared roof deck, laundry, basement storage, bike storage, and low monthly common charges. Pets and pieds-à-terre are permitted with board approval. From this charming Belgian block street, you’re surrounded by Downtown’s most exciting amenities. Enjoy easy access to FiDi and Tribeca, including magnificent local shopping, dining and nightlife.
