The streetscape shown above is a continuation of a view of the east side of Market Street from the Lush-Brinkerhoff house north to Maiden Lane about 1805. North from the Lush-Brinkerhoff house was the home of John Meads; then the house of Martin Beekman; then the house of John Jacob Lansing; the tall building belonged to Barent Bleecker; the old Dutch-style building next door was occupied by General John H. Wendell. The double house and offices of Stephen Lush and his father-in-law, Dr. Samuel Stringer were bounded by the homes of Andrew Brown, Dudley Walsh, and baker Sanders Lansing. The large home partially obscured by the tree belonged to Chancellor John Lansing.
