This tenement was where Modesty Barebone's biological family lived in the 1910s.[1]
History[]
In 1926, Credence Barebone and Gellert Grindelwald (disguised as Percival Graves) visited this home looking for the "Obscurial." While walking upstairs, Credence explained to Grindelwald that their Ma had adopted Modesty Barebone out of this house. Since he had lost all interest in him, Grindelwald then cruelly told Credence that he was a Squib, and went after Modesty in her old bedroom to try to comfort her; but soon after Credence unleashed his Obscurus and wrought havoc in New York.[1]
