109 Washington Street, Residential tenement in Financial District, Manhattan, US

The five-story brick building at 109 Washington Street contains 16 rental units with commercial spaces on the ground floor near multiple subway stations.

Built in 1915, this structure represents the last remaining tenement from a collection of 50 buildings that lined lower Washington Street in early twentieth century Manhattan.

The building housed successive waves of immigrants, including Irish, German, Czech, Slovak, Polish, and Italian families throughout the 1900s in the Financial District.

Located in hurricane evacuation Zone 1, the property stands within walking distance of Rector Street, Wall Street, and Broad Street subway stations.

Following September 11, 2001, the building gained recognition through radio documentaries detailing residents' experiences during the attacks due to its World Trade Center proximity.
