  1. 1877

    January 31

    Fernbach's twin iron fronts rise at 69-71 and 73 Greene Street, with Cornell ironwork

    Henry Fernbach designed 69-71 Greene Street for an owner recorded as Rothchild, with construction from June 1876 to January 31, 1877 by Amos Woodruff & Sons. The five-story iron front came from the Cornell Iron Works. It was built to match its neighbor at 73 Greene Street, for the same owner at exactly the same time, yet the two have always been treated as separate buildings.
