Bronx: 221st Street (East) - White Plains Road

1906

East 221st Street, north side, between White Plains Road and Barnes Ave., showing the Hustace Farm House (also called Husted Farm House. See Jenkins History of the Bronx). It is one of the oldest landmarks of the region and stood on what was formerly Seventh Ave., between Third and Fourth Streets in the village of Olinvile, town of Westchester, Westchester County. The G.W. Bromley map of 1913 shows the house no longer to be there and the 1927 map shows its site occupied by two 2-story brick houses, in the very center of the block on lots 26 and 29. 1906. Gift of Randall Comfort.
