36-42 West 14th Street, Manhattan

Constructed in 1878 as part of Manhattan's commercial expansion along 14th Street, this 5-story office building reflects the area's transition from 19th-century residential districts to a major crosstown commercial corridor.

Architectural Evolution

Originally built during 14th Street's emergence as a retail and entertainment hub, the 185,844 SF structure underwent significant renovation in 2003.

Neighborhood Context

Located between Fifth and Sixth Avenues, the building stands in the Greenwich Village/Union Square border zone where 14th Street historically marked the boundary between Lower Manhattan and Midtown development patterns.

Preservation Status

While not individually landmarked, the building exists within an area containing multiple protected structures. Nearby historic features include cast-iron architecture and the 1913 terra-cotta-clad 154 West 14th Street loft building, exemplifying early 20th-century commercial design strategies for maximizing natural light and freight access.
