  1. 1852

    A building stands at No. 429 by 1852 and gets its fifth story around 1870

    Tax records show Charles Rakielewitz owned the lot, with a building on it, by 1852. Around 1870 the owners, Joseph Ohmeis and John Stimmel, added a fifth story to the four-story house, which is the height the tenement has today. The ground story was later reconfigured and refaced, and its cast-iron columns are now encased.
