  1. 1839

    A fire destroys an 1826 building at 727 Greenwich Street, and a new house replaces it in 1839

    The house at No. 727 was erected in 1839 on a lot where an earlier building from 1826 had been destroyed by fire. The new house was one of those built for the grocers Warren and Joseph B. Harriot. Its stuccoed front, round-arched window and balcony date from the 1928 Spanish Colonial remodeling of the row, which also left a large arched passage beside the front door, serving as a shared way to the back yards of Nos. 725-729.
