Description & Building Alterations

Like its neighbor at 412 East 10th, 416-418 was designed by Sass & Smallheiser in 1903. The 6-story tall, 8-bay wide New-Law tenement building is in the Renaissance Revival style. The original metal cornice features floral swags, large double brackets and scrolled modillions. The second floor has exaggerated splayed lintels while the third through fifth floors feature more subtle splayed lintels with a scrolled keystone. The sixth floor windows are without lintels. Recessed, white brick beltcourses are present on all of the upper floors. The first floor was remodeled in 1941 replacing the stores with apartments.

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.
