Abstract

Description

The Eagle Tavern, one of Trenton�s oldest and most revered historic buildings, occupies the western corner of South Broad and Ferry Streets and comprises a large, seven-bay, two-room-deep brick edifice built in two principal stages. The southern four bays were almost certainly erected as a dwelling by Philadelphia merchant Robert Waln shortly after 1765; the northern three bays are believed to have been added in the 1830s, by which time the building served as a tavern and hotel from 1765 to 1896 .
