Stephen Allen (July 2, 1767 – July 28, 1852) was an American politician from New York.

Biography

Orphaned by the death of his parent(s) in the Revolutionary War, Allen grew to become a wealthy sailmaker.[1]

He was the 55th Mayor of New York City from December 1821 to 1824, first appointed by the Council of Appointment in 1821, and then elected by the Board of Aldermen in 1823 and 1824.

He was a member of the New York State Assembly (New York Co.) in 1826.

He was a member of the New York State Senate (1st D.) from 1829 to 1832, sitting in the 52nd, 53rd, 54th and 55th New York State Legislatures.

In 1835, the same year as the Great Fire of New York, Allen moved to 1 Washington Square North, and led the commission that very quickly rebuilt New York's commercial center.[1]

He died in the Henry Clay steamboat disaster on July 28, 1852 on the Hudson River near the Riverdale section of The Bronx and was buried at the New York City Marble Cemetery.
