The lot belonged to the large holdings of Stephen Whitney and his heirs until 1907, when it was sold to the developer Joseph Buttenweiser. He passed it on to Kittenplan & Rubinger, who built the present tenement. Architect Lafayette A. Goldstone designed it in the Renaissance Revival style in 1908, with stores on the ground floor and in the cellar and apartments for 22 families above.
