The Greany Building is a historic mixed-use commercial and residential building located at 1270–1288 Pleasant Street in Fall River, Massachusetts.

Description and history

[edit]

It is a large four-story brick building designed in a vernacular late Victorian commercial style. The building was constructed in 1891 for Thomas Greany, who operated a dry goods retail operation in part of the first floor, while the upstairs housed 15 residential units. In 1896, Rinfret Bros., a clothier, occupied part of the premises. The building is one of Fall River's finest surviving 19th-century commercial buildings.[2]

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on February 16, 1983.[1]
