Salem merchant John Gardner had this Federalist-style house built in 1804–05 by Samuel McIntire.[65] It was the site of a notorious murder in 1841 that inspired Nathaniel Hawthorne and Edgar Allan Poe.[66] It is now owned by the Peabody Essex Museum, which offers guided tours.[67] Photo: User:Magicpiano, CC BY-SA 4.0, via Wikimedia Commons (https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:SalemMA_GardnerPingreeHouse_1.jpg)
