Bowne House
Дом Бауна
Дом на Баун-стрит [Bowne Street] в нью-йоркском районе Флашинг [Flushing], одно из старейших зданий мегаполиса. Построен Дж. Бауном [Bowne, John] в 1661. Баун был квакером [Quakers], возглавлявшим борьбу за свободу вероисповедания в голландском Новом Амстердаме [New Amsterdam], выступавшим против губернатора П. Стайвесанта [Stuyvesant, Peter]. Здание считается отличным образцом англо-голландской колониальной архитектуры, хотя подвергалось серьезным перестройкам плоть до 1830. Принадлежало представителям клана Баун до 1945, после чего приобретено историческим обществом "Дом Бауна" [Bowne House Historical Society]; включено в Национальный реестр исторических памятников [National Register of Historic Places]. Коллекция мебели XVII-XIX вв., семейные документы.
