Brooklyn Coffee & Tea House
Guest House in Providence, RI
The Brooklyn Coffee & Tea House was part of the Hennessy-McHale block in the historical Smith Hill district of Providence, Rhode Island. The three-and-a-half-story brick structure has a ground floor storefront. All facade windows are crowned with keystone hoodmolds. John B. Hennessey, a grocer, rented this building to the Thomas P. McHale Family. They operated a grocery store on the 1st floor and lived upstairs between 1874 and 1926; the McHales bought the building in 1892. In the mid-1900's it became the home of the Armenian American Civic Club.
