In the heart of Rosebank is the historic home of Antonio Meucci, the true inventor of the telephone, and Giuseppe Garibaldi, a legendary hero who championed the unification of the Italian state.
Meucci’s home was built around 1840 in the Gothic-revival style. Meucci and his wife
Ester began renting it in 1850. That same year, Garibaldi arrived in New York City
seeking refuge. Garibaldi moved in with Meucci and the two worked in Meucci’s candle
factory until 1854, when Garibaldi returned to Italy to lead the victories that unified Italy and won him world wide fame. For staying in staten island select only cheap hotels in staten island ny.
We visited two mornings during our recent visit to LA. Saw a gopher snake, rabbits, Dall's porpoises, sea lions, and many varieties of song birds and sea birds, but missed the grey whales. Bring binoculars if you have them. Beautiful views of the Pacific Ocean and the Malibu coastline. Get here early to snag one of the 6 or 7 parking spots.
