Status: Demolished, 1905
Built for: ?, probably 1800-1820
No photographic evidence survives for this house (though there are images of its successor, a brick Colonial Revival structure built in 1905). It likely was very similar to the house next door at 40 Wall Street.

44 Wall Street
Status: Demolished, 1938
Built for: Simeon Baldwin, 1861
This was a rather grand three bay, symmetrical Second Empire house. It's associated with Simeon Baldwin, a governor of Connecticut. The brick house had a pretty standard façade, but it was enlivened by a bracketed porch with a box window above and shallow mansard roofs. Above the bracketed cornice, were a series of rather unique arched dormer window with curving sides and flat moldings on top. The house was torn down for the Southern New England Telephone Company building which currently occupies the site.
