Schermerhorn on the site of the Schermerhorn mansion, and rented by him to a boys' clothing manufacturer.[3] The Romanesque Revival loft building was designed by Henry Hardenbergh, architect of the Plaza Hotel and The Dakota. The building is constructed of brownstone, sandstone, terra-cotta and wood, and has dwarf columns made of marble.[4]
The building has been a New York City Landmark since 1966,[3] and was added to the National Register of Historic Places on December 28, 1979.
