1937
J.H. Barry designs neo-Tudor stores with a corner tower on this site
Before the present office building, this blockfront held a one-story row of shops erected in 1937 to plans by J.H. Barry. Half-timbered Tudor gables crowned its shopfronts, and a small tower stood at the 82nd Street corner. It belonged to a group of neo-Tudor buildings around the district's main commercial intersection, 37th Avenue and 82nd Street.

1993
Landmarks report lists the lost neo-Tudor blockfront among recent demolitions
The neo-Tudor stores lining 37th Avenue from 82nd to 83rd Street were torn down in the late 1980s. When the Landmarks Preservation Commission designated the Jackson Heights Historic District in 1993, it named this demolition among the area's recent losses and noted that a new office building was then going up on the site.
