    About 1835-36 the hardware merchants Hubbard & Casey built five Greek Revival row houses together on the south side of East 3rd Street, and number 32 is one of the five that survive. Brownstone trim frames the entrance and windows, and the brick is laid in Flemish bond. The group dates from the years when this stretch of Second Avenue was an elite residential address.
