Nancy- Greenwich St runs along the west side of Manhattan from the Battery up to 14th St, running through Wards 1, 3, 5, 8, 9 If house numbering hasn't changed since 1880, current day MapQuest shows 418 a couple of blocks below Canal St (Holland Tunnel). That would put it in the 5th Ward. Best of luck in finding your man.
