    A former row house at 76-78 East 7th Street becomes a six-story tenement

    A structure that looks like a single-family row house occupies this lot on the 1852 Dripps map. Paperwork connected to the Deutsche Poliklinik, a dispensary, still calls it a three-story house up to 1905, and a 1907 New York Times real-estate item describes a six-story tenement. The report places its conversion to a multiple dwelling between those dates, alongside the identical building at No. 80.
