The Theodore Roosevelt Birthplace is a national historic site honoring the 26th President of the United States and located at 28 East 20th Street, between Broadway and Park Avenue South. The building is a reconstruction from the 1920s of the home on the site where Roosevelt lived from his birth in 1858 until 1872. The exhibits display a large number of artifacts from Roosevelt's childhood, through his years in the White House and his post-presidential activities.
