This is a picture of natural gas lanterns that typically adorned the historic rowhouses in NYC before electricity. Very few landmark rowhouses display natural gas lighting today. Even interior rowhouse lighting was gas during pre-electric lighting back in the day. I took this photo in 2005, and I hope these gas lights still adorn this historic rowhouse's entranceway in Manhattan's East Village. I will continue to post pictures from 20 years ago that I took while exploring my fascination with landmark rowhouses every few days. Please look at my real estate calculators, mortgage calculators, and business plan calculators. I spent a significant amount of time programming them and displaying them for your use.
