I remember selling one of these prints to Jim – and I’m pretty sure that this was in Washington Heights, and that it was the oldest house in New York City, and that someone famous, possibly Hamilton had lived there; now it is a museum; but that’s all I can recollect right now.

It’s the Jumel Mansion, Washington Heights. George Washington resided there for a while.  (Thanks for the info Markus)

At any rate, I’m putting it back in the store.
