Tenth Street Studio Building, Artist studio building in Greenwich Village, Manhattan, United States.

The five-story structure at 51 West 10th Street featured a central domed gallery with individual studio spaces arranged in a radial pattern.

Designed by Richard Morris Hunt in 1857, this pioneering facility became the first American building specifically created to accommodate artist workspaces.

The structure housed numerous American artists including Winslow Homer, Albert Bierstadt, and Frederic Edwin Church throughout the nineteenth century.

The building contained multiple interconnected rooms spreading from the central gallery, enabling artists to work, exhibit, and sell their creations in one location.

William Merritt Chase transformed the main gallery into a personal studio filled with collections of artifacts, paintings, and decorative objects until 1895.
