    A pair of two-story buildings for Blaize Lorillard becomes a three-story row house with a new facade

    Two two-story buildings built between 1851 and 1854 for Blaize Lorillard occupied this lot, according to the 1858 tax assessments. The front building gained a third story around 1882. In 1923-24 owner John Gabarino had architect Charles E. Miller raise and alter the facade into its current Arts and Crafts form, and a new rear extension was added in 1925.
