    Charles Schultz has 388 Bleecker Street built, and later buys No. 396 down the block

    The four-story brick house at 388 Bleecker Street was built in 1852-53 with a store on the ground floor for Charles Schultz. It was later converted to multiple tenancy. Schultz afterward bought No. 396 on the same block. The house is known for its paneled cornice carried on console brackets, spaced unevenly with two near the center, above the middle window.
