Chelsea Lodge (New York City, New York) | hotel

USA / New Jersey / Hoboken / New York City, New York / West 20th Street, 318

3-story Greek-revival hotel completed in 1837 as a townhouse. One of the early large houses in the area, it retains many of the important characteristics of its original appearance, such as the brownstone entablature above the door, (the white-painted bracketed trim is a sheetmetal addition), the high broad stoop with pedestals at its base, the ironwork with palmetto crests at the areaway and the hammered finish of the brownstone basement. The 3-bay facade is clad in red brick, with white metal cornices over the windows. The building is crowned by a bracketed and modillioned white metal roof cornice. It was converted to an inn in the early 2000s.
