    The National Register survey of the Chinatown and Little Italy district lists 53-55 Elizabeth Street as a chair factory and loft built about 1897. It rises seven stories, with a corbelled brick and cast-iron facade organized around a triple arch, and the survey classes its style as commercial with Renaissance Revival touches.
