An 1852 insurance map shows 313 Sixth Avenue filling its lot, possibly as an upholsterer's or a mason's workshop
An 1852 insurance map shows 313 Sixth Avenue covering the full depth of its lot and lit by three skylights, which suggests a workshop. The 1851 city directory lists two tradespeople at the address, Elizabeth Beadell, an upholsterer, and Edward Rogers, a mason, and either could have worked there. By then the house was already mixed-use, with a store on the ground floor.

A restaurant opens at 313 Sixth Avenue after the upper floors sit empty for five years
The apartments above the shop at 313 Sixth Avenue were vacated in 1939 and left empty. From 1944 to 1959 the building housed a restaurant. In 1959 the architect Burton F. Nowell Jr. reconverted it to mixed use, with a restaurant below and two apartments on each floor above.
