A six-story apartment house for J. Lippman and S. Root is later sliced diagonally by Seventh Avenue South
Charles Meyers designed this six-story apartment house in 1910 for J. Lippman and S. Root. It sits at the prow facing McCarthy Square, with its entrance at Nos. 30-32 Charles Street. When Seventh Avenue South was cut through in 1919, one side of the building was truncated on a diagonal. Its top floor and cornice are painted in a darker shade than the brick below.
“…built in 1910 for J. Lippman and S. Root, and designed by Charles Meyers... its other side truncated diagonally by Seventh Avenue South, when it was cut through in 1919.”
