No. 124 is one of nine Anglo-Italianate houses on East 10th Street, completed in 1861, that wrap around the corner into Stuyvesant Street as 'The Triangle'. The landmarks commission judged that the two rows should be seen as a single building in the grand manner, and the design has been attributed to James Renwick Jr., though no document confirms it. The truncated stone-faced point, with rusticated basements and vermiculated corners, anchors the whole composition.
“Visually the group should be considered as a single building designed in the grand manner, instead of two rows of small houses on a triangular shaped lot.”
