A Fifth Avenue loft building with three street fronts
122–124 Fifth Avenue, Manhattan, New York, NY 10011. Architect Robert Maynicke designed this neo-Renaissance store-and-loft building for developer Henry Corn in 1899–1900. The city’s Ladies’ Mile designation report identifies a T-shaped plan with fronts on Fifth Avenue, West 17th Street and West 18th Street. Early occupants included a milliner, publishers and the Anthony & Scovill photographic-equipment firm.
Follow the arches around the block
From Fifth Avenue, look above the ground-floor storefronts for the deep horizontal joints in the limestone base and the three tall arches across the middle floors. Then look at the West 18th Street frontage, where red brick above the base changes the appearance of the same basic pattern. The city’s 2025 hearing materials include archival street photographs that let you compare the storefront with its earlier form.
