    In 1925 the J.H. Taylor Construction Company built this one-story garage for the estate of Samuel Weil, a developer who also put up buildings at 174-179 Hudson Street and 36 Laight Street. The site had held three five-story tenements, torn down in 1916. By the 1940s the garage served as a storage and freight terminal, a use it kept into the district's designation.
