A wood-frame house with a brick front goes up at 445 Sixth Avenue
No. 445 Sixth Avenue belongs to a row of six frame houses built in 1835 whose fronts are laid in Flemish bond brick. Each is three stories tall with a shop beneath, and the row turns the corner into West 10th Street, ending at No. 107. The city's 1969 district report singles out the row's matching windows and continuous brick cornice as a harmonious piece of the avenue.
“These frame houses, with brick fronts in Flemish bond, were built in 1835 for Andrew Smith and are three stories high with stores beneath them.”
