Scheffel Hall, Renaissance Revival commercial building in Gramercy Park, Manhattan, US

The four-story Scheffel Hall displays German Renaissance architecture with detailed terra cotta cladding across its entire Third Avenue facade.

Built between 1894 and 1895, Scheffel Hall served as a beer hall and restaurant during the period when the neighborhood was known as Kleindeutschland.

Named after German poet Joseph Victor von Scheffel, the building housed numerous establishments including a German-American Athletic Club and Fat Tuesday's jazz club.

Located at 190 Third Avenue, the building received New York City Landmark status in 1997, protecting its architectural elements for future generations.

The building's design replicates architectural elements from the Friedrichsbau at Heidelberg Castle, demonstrating early German influence in Manhattan construction.
