    Louis A. Sheinart designed the six-story tenement at 132-134 Thompson Street for the Citizens Investing Company, which the Italian-born builder Dominick Abbate founded in 1911. It was one of five tenements Sheinart built in the district for Abbate between 1911 and 1914. The white-glazed brick front was chosen to suggest cleanliness and health, and the plan is a six-story H shape.

    “Sheinart built this and four other tenements in the district between 1911-1914 for Italian-born builder and real estate developer Dominick Abbate's Citizens Investing Company, which was founded in 1911.”
