Eldridge Street is a street in the Lower East Side and Chinatown neighborhoods of Manhattan in New York City, running from Houston Street in the north to East Broadway in the south. Originally called Third Street according to the numbering system for the Delancey Farm Grid, it was named in 1817 for Lt. Joseph C. Eldridge, whose unit was ambushed by Indian allies of the British in Upper Canada during the War of 1812.[1]

The New York County Jail, better known as the Eldridge Street Jail, was located at 22 Eldridge Street[8] and operated from 1836 to 1862,[9] when it was replaced by a new jail on Ludlow Street. The jail building started out as a three-story private home and before becoming a jail was a first a school and then city watchhouse.
