The proprietor's name (P. Wight) on print, identifies it as an advertisement. The old City Hotel, on the corner of Thames Street (on the right) was closed in 1849. Lithograph by Frances Flora Bond Palmer (1812–1876), created between 1846 and 1849 (original in the Metropolitan Museum of Art).

This area was devastated by the Great Fire of 1776. There was a two-story building on the site before 1830 and a three-story building around 1830. about 1843, the All Nations' Hotel was at 111 Broadway. The New England Hotel was constructed about 1844 (The Great Metropolis or New York in 1845, copyrighted 1844, indicates 111 Broadway as New England House). It was demolished in 1852 to make way for the Old Trinity Building. About the early 1860s, the Moss Hotel at 30 Bowery was sold and renamed New England Hotel.
