Unnoticed by the throngs of tourists waiting for a slice of pizza, 5-7 Front Street is believed to be the oldest office building in New York City. The three story building was constructed in 1834 in the Greek Revival style.

Beautiful museum with a mix of old and new halitosis (damn autocorrect) I mean history! As you enter there is a reception desk immediately in front of you. To your right is the newer exhibitions and to you left is the old history. I went left first and after working my way through the 1200s I finally arrived at WWI which is what these pictures are showing. There’s something for everyone Enjoy your visit!
