141 Fifth Avenue, southeast corner of East 21st Street, Manhattan. The city’s Ladies’ Mile Historic District report describes two building campaigns. Robert Maynicke designed the first store-and-loft section, built in 1896–97. Henry Edwards Ficken designed the north addition in 1899–1900, extending the façade and adding the curved corner beneath the dome. The building was later converted to condominiums.

What to look for from the sidewalk
From the west sidewalk near West 21st Street, follow the cornice as it bends around the corner and look up to the dome. On the Fifth Avenue side, the round upper window and the carved garlands help pick out the corner from the straight bays. A block south, compare this pale, ornate façade with the broad brick arches of the former Methodist Book Concern at 150 Fifth Avenue.
