    Adolph Kuttroff, head of a dye firm, has William Schickel design a nine-story warehouse

    Adolph Kuttroff, who headed a dye-stuff firm, hired the architect William Schickel in 1895 to design this nine-story warehouse. Schickel had already designed a Manhattan residence for Kuttroff, at East 69th Street and Madison Avenue in 1882-83, and Shelter Island houses for Kuttroff and his partner Carl Pickhardt. The Renaissance Revival building has arcaded brick piers above a two-story pink granite base.
