Need help identifying what style/type dresser this is...

Good quality furniture had hand made dovetails - and indeed, still does. Ercol, for example, still hand make chairs, despite being a "brand". There was an awful lot of machine made stuff of course, and we did that far earlier than the US.

Yes, is pretty sure that market has seen plenty of ups & downs in it's day, since 1791, that is a long long time to still be operating.
There is an old restaurant there (can't remember the name) in the quarter that is 18th century as well & my first time there, i sat down with my mother who was visiting and the waiter asked what we wanted to drink. As he was about to leave to get our drinks, mother asked for a menu, we don't have any the waiter replied!
Basically you are having what THEY are having and that's THAT! I think it was corned beef & cabbage that night. My mom talked about that experience until the day she died.

Antoine's. Most of the menu, and all of the decor is pretty much the same since it opened in the 1850's.
