In 1903 the architects Sass & Smallheiser drew up a six-story brick tenement for the owners Mishkind & Feinberg. Built under the city's new-law rules, it had wooden bay shop windows at street level and a wrought-iron fire escape. White brick quoins and paired terra-cotta lintels bearing shields decorated the facade.

1943
The ground-floor shops at 104-106 Sullivan Street are replaced by residential infill
A 1943 alteration removed the original wooden bay shop windows on the ground floor and filled the openings with residential infill. Only the paneled cast-iron columns with acanthus capitals survived from the old storefronts. At some point the cornice and the large pedimented lintels were also removed and replaced with plain brickwork.
