Mason John C. Tucker builds and lives at 26 Greenwich Avenue
John C. Tucker, a mason, built Nos. 24 and 26 Greenwich Avenue in 1835-36 and made No. 26 his own home. Like its neighbor, it was originally only two and a half stories high. It was later covered in stucco, and its roof parapet dates from the twentieth century.
“Both Nos. 24 and 26 were erected in 1835-36 by John C. Tucker, a mason, who lived at No. 26.”
