    Merchants Boorman and Johnston build a row of small houses on Greenwich Avenue

    Nos. 62 to 68 Greenwich Avenue, including this house, went up in 1840-41 as a row of small three-story brick houses. Their owners were James Boorman and John Johnston, partners in a well-known merchant firm whose own residences stood on Washington Square North. The row kept some Greek Revival features, and shops now occupy every ground floor.

    “This row of small three-story brick houses was erected in 1840-41 for the well known firm of merchants, consisting of James Boorman and John Johnston…”
