Henry Kugeler builds Nos. 367 and 369 as twin mansard-roofed houses to Henry Engelbert's plans
The city's 1969 district report describes Nos. 367 and 369 as twin brick houses of 1868, built for Henry Kugeler to plans by Henry Engelbert. Each had its fifth floor inside a mansard roof with pedimented dormers, and each was designed for three families above a store. The report points out that the block predates the Stuyvesant Apartments of 1869 on East 18th Street.
“The twin brick houses facing Bleecker Street have their fifth stories within the popular mansard roofs…”

March 15
Kugeler's daughters sell the corner buildings at auction
Henry Kugeler died around 1909, and his two Bleecker Street buildings, along with the house then numbered 18 Van Nest Place, passed to his daughters Matilda C. Kugeler and Anna L. Zellweger. The sisters put all three properties up for auction, and they were sold on March 15, 1910. Kugeler had still owned the buildings in 1877, nine years after he put them up.
