Manhattan: Broadway - 12th Street

Broadway, East side, from 14th to l3th Streets. The Demarest Building on the S.E. corner of 14th Street, built by the Domestic Sewing Machine Company in 1872, was at that time the highest building in New York, and was so advertised. It was replaced by a twenty-three story building between 1925 and 1930. The Roosevelt
Building, which adjoins it, would rise in 1936.
About 1921.
