A three-story brick storage building at 25 Wooster Street was finished on October 4, 1894, with W. G. Jones as architect and Jones & Co. as builder. Gerolamo Cella was the owner. The district report suspects the structure is far older than 1894 and may be an early building that was altered then, pointing to the tie-rod cover and stone lintels as clues.
“Possibly a very old building altered in 1894; note tie rod cover and stone lintels.”

ADG-SoHo buys the former Tootsie Roll factory at 325 West Broadway and 23-25 Wooster for $23 million
Tootsie Rolls were once made at 325 West Broadway, in a complex of four buildings joined into one chocolate factory that ran through to Wooster Street. In 2006 the developer ADG-SoHo bought it from Tootsie Roll Industries for $23 million. The plan announced in 2008 would keep and restore the two older buildings at 23-25 Wooster, demolish the 1960s West Broadway factory, and build a nine-story, 29-unit condominium called The Chocolate Factory.
