    In 1920 the architects Francis Y. Joannes and Maxwell Hyde modernized the 1844 houses on MacDougal Street, including this pair at 92 and 94. They removed the stoops, rebuilt the entrances with six-panel doors and side lights, and turned the old first-floor doorways into windows with decorative lintels, while keeping the original cornice.
