GVSHP’s request for evaluation to LPC and 233-237 Bleecker Street history report by Linda Yowell 06/18/07

Located within the South Village Historic District proposed by GVSHP, these rare, historic early 19th century structures at 233-237 Bleecker Street face the continuing threat of insensitive alterations and possible demolition. These iconic buildings—at a critical intersection in the South Village—are in and of themselves historically and architecturally significant enough to warrant landmark designation; however, there is also evidence to indicate that they may have served as the inspiration for the renowned Edward Hopper painting Early Sunday Morning (1930).
