Stoothoff-Baxter-Kouwenhoven House
Post
The kitchen wing of this picturesque house (the low extension to the left of the taller section) was built about 1747, presumably by an ancestor of Garret Stoothoff. Stoothoff’s daughter, Altje (Dutch for “Alice”), married John Baxter, an Irish-born schoolmaster in the town of Flatlands. The Baxters inherited the property, and in 1811 joined the small house to a new, larger wing. Their daughter, Abigail, wife of William I. Kouwenhoven, eventually became the owner, hence its tripartite name: Stoothoff-Baxter-Kouwenhoven. The house was reoriented about 1900 for the opening of East 48th Street. It became a landmark in 1976
