Kyritz bought the lot in 1885, when it held a two-story wood-framed house, and in 1888-89 had Greenpoint architect Frederick Weber design a five-story neo-Grec apartment building. Born in Germany, Kyritz was listed as a house painter in the 1880 census, and he ran the contracting and painting firms Charles Kyritz & Son and then Kyritz & Valentine from offices in this building. His family and heirs owned it until 1925.
