An earlier five-story building with a cast-iron cornice stands on this lot in 1916
When the district was designated, the lot at 233-235 Water Street held a two-story modern brick structure, but a taller building had stood here before it. That earlier building appears to have been five stories tall, and a 1916 view showed it with a cast-iron roof cornice and segmental-arched cast-iron window lintels. The outline of its roof can still be traced on the side wall of its neighbor at No. 231.
