Description & Building Alterations

This five-story structure was originally built in 1889 as a four-story stable owned by St. Marks Church. It was raised one-story higher in 1903, still to be used as a stable and carriage house. Its occupancy was changed from stable to garage during an alteration in 1924.

The present facade features a red brick surface with incised patterned brickwork, projecting brick piers flanking the building and at the fourth through fifth stories, window lintels, and beltcourses.

What is the Building Blocks Project

What does a building mean to someone who lives there? A person who lives on the block? In the neighborhood? In the city? This site presents a wealth of historic information gained from GVSHP’s architectural research survey about the buildings located in the East Village.

The site explores the area generally considered today as the East Village: from a northern border of 14th Street to a southern border of Houston Street, Avenue D in the east to 4th Avenue/the Bowery to the west. You can explore the information about the blocks and buildings featured here in two ways.

Pick a block. Maybe it’s yours, or perhaps it is just your favorite place to shop, grab a bite, or just people watch. Then explore the buildings that make up that block. Or take one of the many guided tours on the site, curated by a collection of organizations and experts from the neighborhood. See how they experience the neighborhood. Then tell us what the neighborhood means to you. The site’s comments section allows you to open a dialogue with others who feel just as passionately as you do about the East Village.
