From Wikipedia:

Caleb Baldwin Tavern

The Caleb Baldwin Tavern is a historic house at 32 Main Street in the Newtown Borough Historic District in Newtown, Connecticut, built around 1763. The two-and-a-half-story house is considered historically significant for its role in movement of French Army forces under General Rochambeau, as it housed some of the army's officers in June 1781 on their march to the Siege of Yorktown. It is also an example of traditional 18th-century New England architecture and retains some details from that time period. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on August 23, 2002.
