    Joseph Buttenweiser was the original owner of this five-story tenement, which George Pelham designed in 1893-94 as one of a pair filed under one building application with 128 MacDougal Street. Its brick facade had brownstone and terra-cotta ornament. In 1938 the first story was reworked, a new residential entrance was made at basement level and the cornice was removed.

    “…constructed under the same New Building application as 128 MacDougal Street... new main residential entry established at basement... cornice apparently also removed as part of ALT 1543-1938…”
