Clarence Eytinge was a lithographer with an office at 218 Fulton Street. His firm, Fern & Eytinge, published views of New York City in the 1850s, and his brother Sol Eytinge Jr. was a noted illustrator.
“Built in the late 1790s and remodeled a century later, No. 206 Front Street was the location of the Howell family businesses for well over 100 years. It first served as a grocery, providing staples such as flour, sugar, and spirits to customers who bought fresh produce at the Fulton Market. It later housed the Howell’s famous military store, one of New York’s leading suppliers of guns and gunpowder at the turn of the century,” according to the plaque on the building. The building is now part of Cannon’s Walk, a pedestrian area across from the Fulton Market in South Street Seaport.
