18 East 50th Street, Office building in Midtown Manhattan, United States
The 11-story structure at 18 East 50th Street features a grey terracotta facade that resembles granite and stands between Fifth Avenue and Madison Avenue.
Built in 1916, the Neo-Gothic building was originally home to Hampton Shops, a furniture company that operated from its construction until bankruptcy in 1938.
The building's design deliberately complements St. Patrick's Cathedral across the street, incorporating Gothic decorations and pointed arches throughout its exterior.
The property occupies 5,640 square feet with a 56-foot frontage on 50th Street, providing commercial space near major transportation hubs and retail establishments.
The structure includes double-height arcades at its base and top, with medieval-style elements that make it appear like a grand castle entrance.
