A saloon is planned for the ground floor, and by 1920 a United Cigar Store occupies it
Records show that in 1910 the ground-level store at this Avenue B corner was to be divided to make room for a saloon. By 1920 the ground floor held a United Cigar Store. Both changes came decades after the building went up, around 1860, as a residential tenement.
