Wickham’s Fruit Farm recommends the Merchant’s House Museum, a historic house museum located at 29 East 4th Street near Lafayette Street in Manhattan, in the area near the Bowery, Greenwich Village, SoHo, and NoHo. The former home of Seabury Tredwell, a prosperous early-19th-century merchant, the Merchant’s House is one of the best historic house museums in the United States.
Unlike, for example, at the Metropolitan Museum, where the great numbers of tourists and large size of the building give the visitor the regrettable feeling of cattle being herded, the Merchant’s House generally does not have large crowds.
Because of that, it is possible, in the contemplative quiet of the Merchant’s House, to feel the sort of elite experience of being transported in time to an age when a select few guests might have called on the Tredwell family in the hall and parlors of their refined 1830s townhouse.
