Studebaker Building, Manhattan
The Studebaker Building is a former establishment at 1600 Broadway (Manhattan) on the northeast corner and 48th Street. It was erected by the Juilliard Estate in 1902 between Broadway (Manhattan) and 7th Avenue, in the area north of Times Square. The edifice was demolished in 2004 to make room for an apartment tower, a twenty- five story, 136 unit, luxury condominium designed by architect Einhorn Yaffee Prescott.
The Studebaker Building was ten stories high and occupied the entire block front between Broadway and 7th, facing Broadway for one hundred thirteen feet. It was built from the Juilliard estate, seeking a thoroughly safe income upon what was doubtless a very modest appraisal of the property's value. The structure covered the southern end of the block at Broadway and 49th Street. It was fireproof and fronted 48th Street for one hundred and four feet.
