115 Fifth Avenue at East 19th Street, Manhattan, New York, NY 10003. The city also lists this historic department store at 881–887 Broadway. The two addresses give you two ways to see the building from the sidewalk.

What to look for from the sidewalk

Start on Fifth Avenue at East 19th Street and look up at the rows of arched windows. The Landmarks Preservation Commission’s designation report identifies the Fifth Avenue façade as cast iron. Follow East 19th Street to Broadway to compare the two fronts. The city’s Landmarks Preservation Commission hearing notice identifies Griffith Thomas as the architect and describes the Second Empire department store within the Ladies’ Mile Historic District.

This is an exterior viewing stop. Public access to historic interiors and current leasing availability were unconfirmed. Compare its retail frontage with the narrow, domed corner of the former Sohmer piano showroom farther up Fifth Avenue.
