Brevoort House


Source

The Brevoort house, occupied by Commodore Brevoort was built by *Robert Navarre about the year 1740. That and the Labadie house, built the same year, were standing in 1885. The Brevoort house was just above Twenty-fourth street, on what as commonly known as the River road, but now River street. The Lafferty house, which was demolished some years ago, was built about 1750. [Source]

*Navarre's daughter, Mary Catherine, married Henry Bergaw Brevoort and lived in the house built by her father
