Philip W. Teets, a stove dealer, had two buildings constructed side by side on this lot around 1861-62, replacing two three-story masonry buildings. Together they form a brownstone-faced Italianate building about thirty-nine feet wide with surviving cast-iron elements and a bracketed iron cornice. The facade resembles that of its neighbor at 315 Greenwich Street.
“…originally constructed as two buildings on the same lot for stove dealer Philip W. Teets…”
