Where's the rest of me?

560 North Street, located on that triangular parcel between Taconic and North, is new to the market today at $2.950 million. The listing says, “This important Mead home was originally built in 1796 and retains its magnificent proportions and details”, but aside from some original floorboards scattered about the place, I don’t see it.

Maybe there’s more — FWIW has a reader who is a direct descendant of the Meads, and he might have some insight to offer here. Otherwise, it just looks like an older home in a noisy location, and my passion for antiques is not stirred.
