Robert Morris Inn (314 N Morris St)

Now to the Inn that bears Robert Morris Sr.’s name.  The building you see today had its humble beginnings around 1710.  A small original structure, overlooking the harbor front, served as Robert Morris’s office, and might even have been his home.  Since then, it has undergone many improvements and expansions, capitalizing on Oxford's location and history to serve first as a tourist home, then in 1875, with the addition of more rooms the stylish Second Empire Mansard Roof, and a bowling alley the very popular River View House. Since then the building has been a store, a pool hall, a rest home for blinded WWI veterans, and even a watermen’s bar, where if you swore out loud you got kicked out.
