William Cleary replaces the rear building behind No. 47 with a three-story brick tenement
William H. Cleary, who bought Nos. 47 and 49 from Trinity Church in 1865 and ran them as rooming houses, tore down the back building of No. 47 in 1870. In its place he put up a three-story brick tenement. The rear lots had earlier housed small frame houses reached by a horsewalk from the street.
