Residence of Clement Clarke Moore (CC 1798) on the south side of West 23rd Street. Chelsea House was the Clarke family estate.

St. John's Park
These photographs seem to be all taken from the same house on what was then known as Hudson Square or St. John's Park. The photographs show views from a house on Hudson Street, on the westside of the Square, just above Hubert Street.
