281 Fifth Avenue
Posted on April 4, 2015 by — No Comments
A classic Depression-era “taxpayer”, 281 Fifth Avenue, shown at the northern corner of its block, is slated for demolition along with its neighbor to the south at 279 Fifth Avenue. The building may not seem noteworthy at first glance, but its Art Moderne styling is sophisticated, particularly the great curved windows, which represent an attempt to provide a high-style interior worthy of the location.
The demolition netting has gone up since this picture was taken.
