    Charles M. Straub designed this six-story tenement for Pasquale Lauria in 1908, and the date is stamped on a panel of the metal cornice. When it went up, a bakery was already running out of the cellar. The cast-iron entrance surrounds and ironwork handrails from that period remain in place on the Prince Street front.
