Stone Street (Manhattan)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Stone Street is a street in Manhattan's Financial District. It originally ran from Broadway to Hanover Square, but was divided into two sections by the construction of the Goldman Sachs building at 85 Broad Street in the 1980s.[1] The street was named Stone Street because of its cobblestone paving.[1] Before that time, it was known as Brewers Street.[1] The eastern portion of the street and the surrounding buildings have been protected since 1996 by the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission as the Stone Street Historic District, and is pedestrian-only.[1] The historic district is now populated by several restaurants and bars, and has outdoor dining when the weather permits.
The India House historic landmark is located at the Hanover Square end of the street.
