Buttenwieser Original Architect : George Frederick Pelham Description & Building Alterations The six-story tenement was built in 1896-97. Designed by architect George Frederick Pelham, it was constructed as part of a row of buildings at Nos. 70-74 East 7th Street for owner Joseph L. Buttenwieser.

The entrance is enframed in an arched opening with a mask keystone, flanked by marble Corinthian columns.
