    In 1896 the engineer Henry W. Post had a six-story store and loft building erected on a 25-foot-wide lot on the east side of Hudson Street, between Duane and Thomas Streets. The architect was George F. Pelham, whom the Landmarks Preservation Commission describes as known for a large body of residential and commercial work. Its lower two floors rest on cast-iron framing and pilasters, and the upper floors have iron mullions and sheet-metal spandrel panels; the iron came from the Eagle Iron Works of Brooklyn.

    “This structure was built in 1896 for engineer Henry W. Post and designed by architect George F. Pelham, noted for his many residential and commercial commissions.”
