A pre-law tenement is built at 532 on the widened Laurens Street
In 1870 Laurens Street was widened by 25 feet on its west side, and many of the shortened lots were quickly rebuilt as tenements. This five-story brick Italianate tenement followed in 1878, designed by W. H. Smith for Ellen D. Brooks. It predates the Tenement House Act of 1879, so it belongs to the type called a pre-law tenement.
