O'Neill Building, Former department store in Chelsea, Manhattan, United States.

The O'Neill Building spans an entire block at 655 6th Avenue, featuring neo-Grec architecture with cast-iron facades and four ornate gilded domes at its corners.

Built between 1887 and 1890, the structure initially served as Hugh O'Neill's Dry Goods Store until 1907 when financial difficulties led to its merger with Adams Dry Goods Store.

The building belongs to the Ladies' Mile Historic District, an area that represented the height of New York City retail fashion commerce in the late 19th century.

Following its 2005 conversion, the building contains 49 residential units across seven floors, equipped with a 4000-square-foot roof deck and 24-hour doorman service.

The construction occurred in two phases to maintain store operations, with a fifth floor added in 1895 by raising the entire pediment of the building.
