Early Merchant's House - 1732 Thames Street
In rare original condition, this large house (c. 1800) offers visitors "the single finest historic waterfront property in Baltimore." The late federal-style structure is constructed of pink brick set in Flemish bond and has a well-molded brick cornice. Typical of town houses of the rich, this house stands 3 1/2 stories tall (with a dormer) and has stone lintels over the windows. Merchants often had a shop at street level and lived upstairs. The house belongs to the Preservation Society and provides a waterside portal to its complex of buildings on Ann Street.
