NotesSubject Note: 1 Lewis Street is a simple three-story office building, erected as a residence sometime prior to 1850. During the late twentieth century and later it served as law offices. The law offices of James Kinsella, who served as mayor of Hartford from 1957 to 1960, were located in the building.Status
