NYC_Tenth Ave_475 -1

Former Warehouse, 475 Tenth Avenue aka 501 - 509 West 36TH ST, New York, NY 10018 (Goldwin, Starrett and Van Vleck: 1913)

 

This is a "12-sty brick and stone warehouse, 98×175" per the DOB records. There is also a later penthouse addition. It is a minor masterpiece of terra cotta commercial architecture. The contrast between the white terra cotta and the black metal window frames has a powerful effect. The building is well maintained. The ground floor houses the Exit Art Gallery.
