Work began on April 18, 1881 for David Einstein, who commissioned Henry Fernbach to design three attached store buildings at 93-95, 97 and 99 Greene Street. They were finished on December 20, 1881. Each rose six stories behind an iron front. Einstein also owned 103-105 Greene Street, a Fernbach store he had put up two years earlier.

A single neo-Grec facade ties together 93-95, 97 and 99 Greene Street
Fernbach gave the three buildings one shared front in the neo-Grec style. Number 93-95 has five bays while its neighbors have four, and incised pilasters mark the divisions between the buildings. Stylized Ionic columns separate the bays, and a row of incised panels under the second-floor windows looks like a balcony from a distance.
