    American Architect and Building News prints the iron front of 31 Greene Street and credits G. W. Romeyn

    In its February 24, 1877 issue the journal ran two plates showing the elevation and details of the neo-Grec cast-iron facade at 31 Greene Street, published four months after the building was finished and accurate in every detail. The magazine credited G. W. Romeyn, while the city dockets named George W. Dacunha. The Landmarks Preservation Commission favors Dacunha, who designed a twin facade at 74 Grand Street in 1885-86.
