John Jelliff & Co. ==> What's there now...

[Michadi Antiques]

I was curious what remains if anything of the building where John Jeffiff and Co. conducted business, so I did a bit of research the other day.  Jelliff was located at 794-796 Broad St., Newark, NJ.  If you examine the photograph below, you will see a store with a red banner that says "SA Stores" which is a "5 and dime" type of store.  The external shape of the building today seem to match the one interior shot from the later part of the 19th century that I am aware of. 

Just an item of somewhat trival interest.

Fun! Hey, Newark doesn't look so bad...

The fenestration pattern seems to indicate that this is an early 20th century commercial building. They may have radically altered the 19th century shell at the time, or simply constructed a new building.

Can I assume you've never been there?

Though I lived in Gotham for 5 years, I never made the journey to Newark. 

And yes, my comment was a bit tongue-in-cheek
