1911
The twin white-brick tenements at 170-176 Spring Street are among the last built in the Sullivan-Thompson district
The district's last seven tenements went up between 1911 and 1914, and 170-172 and 174-176 Spring Street are two of them, designed as a matching pair by Horenburger & Bardes. All seven were faced in glazed white brick, a material then associated with hygiene and cleanliness. By the early 1900s, Italian Americans made up the district's largest ethnic group.
“The last seven tenements built in the historic district were constructed between 1911 and 1914.”
