1906
Storefronts are cut into the ground floor of the tenement at 312 East 6th Street
In 1906 alteration plans were filed to install storefronts in this five-story tenement, which the heirs of Stephen Whitney had built around 1863. The shops did not last: the storefronts were later taken out, and the stoop was removed with the entrance moved down to the basement. Two small windows were also added at the center of each story.
“Storefronts were installed in this building in 1906 (ALT 1175-1906) but subsequently removed.”
