Building at 361 Broadway, Commercial landmark in Tribeca, Manhattan, United States
The six-story building at 361 Broadway features a cast-iron facade with decorative brackets, tall windows, and ornate cornices spanning its exterior walls.
Construction of this Italianate structure began in 1881 under architect W. Wheeler Smith, serving as offices for Scientific American magazine from 1884 to 1915.
The building reflects the architectural transformation of Lower Manhattan during the late 19th century, when cast-iron structures defined the commercial district.
Located at the intersection of Franklin Street and Broadway, the structure maintains its original exterior while housing luxury residential units inside.
Engineers implemented a Vierendeel truss system to support the addition of duplex apartments without compromising the historical facade structure.
