The 1867 twin tenement at 23 East 7th Street has a rusticated base and a round-arched door
Built in 1867 for John W. Miller, the Italianate tenement is identical to no. 21 next door and sits on the same tax lot. It has a rusticated masonry base, segmental-arched lintels over the upper windows and a modillioned cornice with leafy brackets. Its double-leaf wooden door has a round arch.

1905
Architect Henry J. Feiser cuts new windows into the front wall of 23 East 7th Street
A permit of 1905 (ALT 3035-1905), filed by the architect Henry J. Feiser, called for new windows to be cut into the center piers of the front wall on the second through fifth floors. The Landmarks Preservation Commission suggests the present window pattern may date from that work. The New York Times had already described the building as a five-story brick tenement with stores in 1903.
