Architect Samuel A. Warner, designer of Marble Collegiate Church, is credited with 78 Franklin Street
Samuel A. Warner (1822-1897), born in Geneseo, New York, trained in his father's office and made his name with large dry-goods stores, among them buildings for H.B. Claflin and S.B. Chittenden & Co. He also designed Marble Collegiate Church on Fifth Avenue (1851-54). Of the five store and loft buildings he designed in Tribeca East during the mid- to late 1860s, the three identical ones at 76, 78 and 80 Franklin Street are credited to him because he owned No. 78 while they were built.
