The extension of Seventh Avenue leaves 289 Bleecker Street as the last building on its block
When Seventh Avenue was pushed south in 1919, it cut off the tip of Bleecker Street's eastern side, running from Barrow to Jones Street, and the neighboring Nos. 291 and 293 were renumbered as Seventh Avenue South addresses. No. 289 stayed on Bleecker Street at the outer edge of what is now the Greenwich Village Historic District. It is a brick building of six stories and four bays, with shops at street level.
