105 First Avenue Building Date : 1841-43 Original Use : Residential Original Owner : William Snediker Original Architect : Unknown Description & Building Alterations The building was originally erected in 1841-43, and probably turned into a four-story with basement tenement later on. In 1882, it was occupied by three families. It went through multiple alterations in the 1930s and 1980s. The present facade features a bracketed roof cornice with ornamental frieze, elaborate window lintels and projecting bracketed sills. It is unclear when the two-story storefront addition was added, though the store cornice remained until at least 1916.
