Edgar Allan Poe Cottage

The Edgar Allan Poe Cottage is the former home of writer Edgar Allan Poe in Bronx NYC. The cottage is estimated to have been built in the late 1700s and is part of the National Register of Historic Places. The home had been a constant source of controversy, as it was frequently struck by vandalism, until the museum began to use live-in caretakers to ensure the safety of the cottage.
