    Built in 1905 to designs by Maximilian Zipkes, this six-story tenement is one of three new-law buildings that Cohen & Kraft developed at 57 to 63 Thompson Street. The Landmarks Preservation Commission notes its terra-cotta window surrounds, bracketed keystones and banded brick, along with a decorative fire escape added during construction.
