A second building is added to the corner lot while George Neander owns it
Village Preservation's research says a building stood on the combined lots 39 and 40 at this corner before 1837. A further building joined it on the lot in 1863, while George Neander held the site. The present five-story tenement dates from 1878, so these were earlier buildings on the site.

Louis Minzesheimer builds a three-story tenement on the corner, raised to five stories the next year
Village Preservation dates the present corner building to 1878, when Louis Minzesheimer was the original owner. It was built with three stories and raised to five in 1879. It appears to have been built in a neo-Grec and Italianate Revival style, with pedimented second-floor window lintels and bracketed sills, though the historic cornice was removed before the 1980s.
