R. C. Williams Warehouse, Commercial warehouse in Chelsea, Manhattan, United States.

The R. C. Williams Warehouse spans 215,000 square feet across 10 stories, featuring a concrete facade divided by columns and large bay windows.

Built between 1927 and 1928 by architect Cass Gilbert for a wholesale grocery company, this building received National Register of Historic Places status in 2005.

The structure represents the evolution of commercial architecture in Manhattan, transitioning from its original logistics purpose to modern educational functions.

Located between 25th and 26th Streets on 10th Avenue, the building includes third-floor access points that connected to the former High Line railway.

The warehouse design mirrors Gilbert's larger Brooklyn Army Terminal project, incorporating similar architectural elements and functional modernist features.
