Friends Meeting House, East 15th St. The history of Fifteenth Street Friends Meeting begins in the 19th century, with the construction of the Meeting House in 1861 to serve Manhattan’s Quaker community, particularly those from the “Hicksite” branch of Quakerism. By the late 1700s, all Quaker meetings in North America had united in their opposition to slavery. Some New York City Friends played key roles in the Underground Railroad and abolitionist movements, while others, though against slavery, were hesitant to publicly oppose it. Isaac Hopper (1771–1852), a prominent abolitionist and philanthropist, was disowned by New York City Friends for his outspoken activism, yet continued attending Quaker worship. Lucretia Mott (1793–1880), an abolitionist and women’s rights advocate, delivered a notable speech at Fifteenth Street Meeting House on November 11, 1866, advocating for women’s rights.

Central Park Hotel. The Central Park Hotel was listed in an 1859 NYC directory. The owner of the hotel was Hermann Knubel.  The City of New York had acquired some of Hermann Knubel’s land for Central Park.  So Mr. Knubel had apparent advance knowledge and quickly put that knowledge to work.  Central Park was directly across from his hotel and the Broadway and Seventh Avenue train terminus was nearby. The Central Park Garden at 900 Seventh Avenue was opened next door to the hotel in May, 1868.
