    A building filing names John Davidson as builder of 13 East 7th Street, but John Tremble stays on the tax rolls

    A Real Estate Record and Guide notice records that John Tremble conveyed the lot to John Davidson in 1869, and Davidson is named as owner and builder on the new building filing, which covers this house and no. 11 next door. Tremble nevertheless remains on the tax records through at least 1873, and for this lot through 1890. The Landmarks Preservation Commission notes that either man may actually have been a lessee.
