Alfred Zucker was the architect of this six-story loft building at Mercer Street and Washington Place, put up in 1890-91 for Charles Wise. It has a cast-iron frame with brownstone and brick facing and a two-story brownstone base on Washington Place. It went up as taller commercial buildings were replacing earlier residential ones nearby, and New York University later acquired it and converted it for educational use.
