Building: 321 Canal Street

321 and 323 Canal Street were constructed as a row of handsome brick Federal houses with attractive dormer windows in 1821, just one year after infamous Collect Pond was drained and Canal Street was filled and paved. Among the first residents of 321 Canal was Samuel F.B. Morse, the well-known American painter responsible for developing the telegraph and Morse code. Today, 321 and 323 are among only three houses in the row that have retained their original exterior designs, which have been carefully restored to their historic grandeur. Set within the SoHo Cast-Iron Historic District, this phenomenal residence is perfectly position at the intersection of SoHo, Tribeca and Hudson Square. Enjoy world-class dining, shopping and nightlife at every turn while sprawling Hudson River Park provides 550 acres of riverfront open space and recreation nearby. Transportation from this accessible neighborhood couldn’t be better with N/Q/R/W, J/Z, 6, A/C/E and 1 trains within minutes.
