GORHAM APARTMENTS
Constructed in the Queen Anne style in 1883, with apartments on the upper floors and the prestigious 19th century Gorham Silver Company on the lower floors. One of the first apartment houses as well as one of the first mixed use buildings ever constructed, Gorham Apartments was designed by the prominent architect Edward Hale Kendall, whose distinguished commissions included the Washington Building, the American Express Building on Jay Street and the Navarre Hotel.
Gorham Apartments was originally owned by the Goelet family, whose mansion stood across the street.
