    Architect Charles Mettam planned 98 and 100 Greene Street as a matched pair for Michael Byrne and H. Wilson, built together as stores. Each is five stories and three bays wide. Narrow pilasters flank the pair and another divides the two, while slender columns topped by stylized capitals separate the bays. The landmarks report says both sit between buildings by Henry Fernbach and calls Mettam's detailing lighter and more imaginative.
