LEXINGTON ![]() Prior to the passage of the 1901 Tenement House Act, the firm of Sass & Smallheiser was responsible for the design of a significant number of old law tenements, many located on the Lower East Side. The six-story apartment house at 144 East 22nd Street, planned almost immediately after the 1901 law went into effect, is a very early example of a new law apartment house. The Beaux-Arts brick building with rusticated limestone base and extensive terra-cotta trim was planned to house 29 middle-class families, four on the first floor and five on each of the upper floors. | ![]() 37 38 40 44 45 60 1 Gramercy Park Hotel Park Gramercy Church Missions House New York Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children United Charities Building Manhattan Trade School for Girls Gramercy Arms Sage House Family Court Building Children's Court 145 Gustavus Adolphus Swedish Lutheran Church Parish House Lexington Miss E.L.
