A three-story brick stable stands at the corner of MacDougal Alley by 1879, later turned into a restaurant
The city's 1969 Greenwich Village Historic District report describes a three-story brick building at the corner of MacDougal Street and MacDougal Alley, with a side entrance at No. 1 MacDougal Alley. It was built as a stable sometime between 1854 and 1879 in the early Romanesque Revival style, with a round-arched doorway, with a carriageway visible on the MacDougal Street side. By the time of the report it held a restaurant, and a big north-light studio window filled the third floor at the rear.
“It was built as a stable, between 1854 and 1879, and its carriageway shows on the MacDougal Street side. It was later converted into a restaurant.”
