Architect Walter G. Jones designed this five-story store and loft building of brick and cast iron, completed in 1894. The Landmarks Preservation Commission describes it as Queen Anne in style, with pedimented bays and a bracketed cornice topped by a central pediment, on what it calls a modest commercial building. The facade has since been painted, but the building remains largely intact.
“…built in 1894... designed by architect Walter G. Jones... pedimented bays, and bracketed cornice with central pediment are characteristics of the Queen Anne style…”

Crerand's Cloak Journal, a trade paper, is a tenant at 460 West Broadway in 1897
Early tenants of this loft building included Crerand's Cloak Journal, a trade paper listed here in 1897. Later occupants reflected the district's manufacturing life: Elite Artificial Flower & Novelty Co. in 1926 and Brunner & Co., hardware manufacturers, in 1943. The building thus housed publishing, novelty goods and hardware trades before the arrival of art galleries.
