    Builder Tarleton B. Earle puts up 38 Eighth Avenue as his own home

    Tarleton B. Earle, a builder, erected No. 38 Eighth Avenue in 1841-42 for himself, and he lived there from 1841 to 1843. He then moved next door to No. 40, which was built at the same time. The building is also numbered 328 West 4th Street. The 1969 historic-district report describes it as a four-story brick house whose bracketed cornice had recently been removed, with a shopfront shared with No. 40.
