    John Kluber has a six-story corner apartment house built at West 4th Street and Horatio Street

    In 1893 James W. Cole builds a six-story brick apartment house for John A. Kluber at 338 West 4th Street, also numbered 20-24 Horatio Street. Its long side faces Horatio Street, and paired chimneys on each end of that side are cut off just below the parapet. By 1969 the ground-floor store had been remodeled and closed off the Horatio side.

    “The house was built for John A. Kluber by James W. Cole in 1893.”
