  1. 1902

    By 1902 the city lists 317 East 6th Street, an 1853 single-family house, as a multiple dwelling

    Built around 1853 for J. Palmer as one of five matching row houses, No. 317 appears as a multiple dwelling in Department of Housing inspection records as early as 1902. The Landmarks Preservation Commission says the houses were probably all divided into tenement apartments before the turn of the century. Its stoop was removed at some point after a 1940s tax photograph.
