114 Fifth Avenue, Manhattan, New York, NY 10011. The New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission’s Ladies’ Mile report identifies this as the Merchants’ Exchange Building, an 18-story Neo-Renaissance office and loft building designed by Maynicke & Franke. The commission dates its construction to 1909. L&L Holding’s fact sheet gives 1910 as the construction year and lists the architects under 1909. Both sources place the building at the same corner.
