    In 1844 a three-story house went up at 466 Sixth Avenue, one of three in a row (Nos. 466-470) that were part of attorney Daniel A. Baldwin's development of this block. The houses were built in the plain vernacular style of the day, with stores at street level and simple cornices and window lintels. The Landmarks Preservation Commission described the row in its 1969 Greenwich Village report.

    “They were part of the development of the block by Daniel A. Baldwin, an attorney (see Nos. 54-84 West Twelfth Street).”
