    The house at 193 Prince Street was one of four built around 1826-27 by the grocer George S. Mills and the carpenter John A. Ryerson on the northwest corner of Prince and Sullivan streets. It was probably two stories high with a peaked roof. Today it is one of three of those houses still standing, though much changed, and the Landmarks Commission classes it as non-contributing.

  2. 1859

    The house at 193 Prince Street is raised to four floors and then gets a shop

    Before 1859 the house at 193 Prince Street had been raised to four stories, and by 1907 its ground floor was in commercial use. Sometime between about 1940 and 1980 the front was remade again: the stoop came off, the basement was clad in permastone, and the stone sills, lintels and cornice were removed.
