East New York Ave., north side, opposite Williams Ave., showing the home of James L. Williams. This house, dating from 1843, has been also known as Tubbs Hotel. It originally faced the intersection of the Brooklyn and Jamaica Plank Road (Fulton Street) and Flatbush Road (East New York Ave.). Now (1922) the house faces East New York Ave., having been turned and moved about 100 feet westward. On the King's County Map of 1873 in the Atlas of Long Island, the Williams estate owned lots 21 to 59 in the area. The Trinity Hospital owns most of
this property, and occupies this house (in 1937).
