    Gordon Burnham had two houses built here in 1848, Nos. 347 and 349 Sixth Avenue. Both were later extensively remodeled, replacing their cornices with low parapets. By 1969 both had stores at street level, the one at No. 347 had been absorbed into the steak house next door, and No. 349 had large plate-glass windows at the second floor.

    “They were built in 1848 for Gordon Burnham and have been extensively remodeled. Both houses have stores at ground floor level…”
