    In 1910 the Greenwich Investing Company built a narrow six-story brick commercial building here, designed by Gronenberg & Leuchtag. It took the place of a residence that had belonged to the 1836-37 row of houses to the south. Its height stands out on a block of low rowhouses, and the 1969 historic district report notes that it adds variety to the block.
