Description & Building Alterations

This new-law tenement building was designed by George F. Pelham for owner Charles I. Weinstein in 1902. The Renaissance Revival building was altered in 1946 when two first floor apartments were combined, leaving three stores and three apartments on the first floor and six apartments on each of the upper stories. Presently, it is six stories in height and six bays wide. The front elevation is symmetrically arranged. It is clad in brick with stone ornament in the classically inspired window surrounds, lintels, and sills. The second floor has window enframements and the third and fourth floors have triangular and round pediments over the windows. The top floor features round arched windows and the cornice has modillions, brackets, and dentil molding. The storefront has been modernized.

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.
