1870
Carpenter John Crouch turns an old MacDougal Street house into a multiple dwelling
Tax records show a house stood on this lot by 1824, owned by John Sneden, and the address then read 120 MacDougal Street before it became 112 by 1857. In 1870 the carpenter John Crouch, listed as both owner and architect, added a full fourth story and a new attic, apparently converting the house to hold several households. The attic became a full fifth story in 1900, when the building was altered for owner Antonio De Maria.
“…a house existed on this tax lot as early as 1824, owned by John Sneden (1825)... converted to a multiple dwelling in 1870…”
