4-story Greek-revival residential building completed in 1846 as a townhouse for Augustus W. Clason. It is wider than most of the period-houses in the area, spanning four windows wide, and clad in red brick. It was modified in 1895 by architect Bruce Price, who lived here from the early 1880s on; his daughter Emily Post, the famous writer on etiquette, lived here as a child. Among these alterations were the addition of a simple dentiled cornice with panels in the fascia, the insertion of a large semicircular cast-iron bay window with dentiled frieze at the first floor and a handsome neo-classical doorway with a dentiled entablature.
