A five-story marble-fronted store goes up at 305 Canal for L. Brutillier
Around 1863 L. Brutillier built a five-story store at 305 Canal Street that runs through the block to 47 Howard Street. Its three-bay Italianate stone front rises above a cast-iron storefront whose fluted colonnettes have lost their capitals. A pediment tops the central second-floor window, which has a balustrade below it, and four large brackets with modillions between them accent the cornice.
“No. 305, which extends through to No. 47 Howard, was built around 1863 for L. Brutillier.”
