No. 761 went up in 1838 as one of four rowhouses built for W. and J. P. Harriot, who kept a grocery at 718 Greenwich Street. It began as a two-and-a-half-story Greek Revival house and was raised to three stories in 1877. A window now fills the original doorway, but its frame and lintel remain in the wall, and a bracketed cornice crowns the facade.
