Two rowhouses on the site are combined and rebuilt as a meat market in 1950
In 1950 the earlier rowhouses at Nos. 402-404 were combined, cut down from three stories to two, extended at front and rear, and given a new brick facade for use as a meat market. The architect was Abraham L. Seiden. In 1971 a connection was opened between No. 402 and the buildings at 21-27 Ninth Avenue. This describes an earlier building on this site.
