Chambers Street is at left. Shown is the narrow side of a wide building, City Hall Park's second almshouse, labeled "5" on the map. When the almshouse moved, the building became home to multiple cultural institutions, including <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scudder%27s_American_Museum" class="extiw" title="en:Scudder's American Museum">Scudder's American Museum</a>, and was renamed the New York Institution.
