The Jeanne d'Arc opens with eight apartments above stores
The building is completed in 1889 with eight apartments, two to a floor, above street-level commercial space, and is named the Jeanne d'Arc to sound cultured. Its legal address is 62 Seventh Avenue, but owner Henry Meinken's 14th Street entrance gives residents the more impressive mailing address of 200 West 14th Street.
