    George F. Pelham designed 71 Mercer Street for the owner Robert Smith, with work beginning in August 1900 and ending in January 1901. It was built for light manufacturing, a brick building of six stories and two bays, unlike the cast-iron stores that make up most of the block. The Landmarks Preservation Commission notes that its cornice has since been replaced.
