756 Greenwich Street, a small house of 1829, gains a fourth floor in 1873
No. 756 was first built in 1829 as a small house. In 1873 it was raised from three to four stories and topped with a cornice of uniform brackets. The upper floors have changed little since, while the first-floor doorway frame has been covered in smooth stucco and tied into a horizontal band course running across the front.
“…originally a small building erected in 1829, was raised from three to four stories in 1873, when it was crowned by a uniformly bracketed cornice.”
