    No. 54 Greenwich Avenue was built in 1861 for George P. Rogers, together with its neighbors Nos. 56 and 58. All three had four stories, though No. 54 stands taller than No. 58. Their street levels were later altered for a restaurant, and the three houses now share a cornice with a wavy profile.

    “They were all built in 1861 for George P. Rogers.”
