    William E. Waring enlarges 112 West Houston Street to five stories for Henry Thole in 1875

    Number 112 West Houston Street started about 1833 as a three-story row house for Edmund Wilkes, one of four at 108 to 114. In 1875 architect William E. Waring raised it to five stories and extended it to the lot line for owner Henry Thole, giving it a stripped Neo-Grec brownstone front. Its design is similar to the neighboring building at 110.

    “Facade dates from 1875, when the building was raised to five stories and extended to the lot line…”
