O'Gorman and Stursberg finish 410 East 140th Street as a rental house
No. 410 belongs to a row of 51 single-family brick houses, built as rentals, that once filled the whole south blockfront of East 140th Street from No. 406 to No. 506. William O'Gorman designed and built the row for himself and partner Hermann Stursberg under a New Building application filed in 1887. The western houses, Nos. 406 to 484, were finished in January 1889 and the rest that May.

1890
Tenants are already living at No. 410 when the police census comes
The New York Police Department's census of 1890 found about two-thirds of the newly finished western houses in the row occupied, and No. 410 was one of the addresses where residents were recorded. In the later-completed eastern group, only Nos. 468 and 470 had occupants that year.
