  • 18 FULTON STREET BUILDING, Borough of Manhattan
    Landmarks Preservation Commission October 29, 1968, Number 4 LP-0059 18 FULTON STREET BUILDING, Borough of Manhattan. Begun 1811, completed 1812 for Peter Schermerhorn, architect unknown. Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 74, Lot 15 in part, consisting of the land on which the described building is situated. On October 19, 1965, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the 18 Fulton Street Building and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site. (Item No. 31). The hearing had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of law. DESCRIPTION AND ANALYSIS Schermerhorn Row, one of the first commercial rows in New York City consists of a g roup of twelve red brick warehouses all erected at the same time, in 1811-1812, by the same owner, Peter Schermerhorn. These structures with their high pitched roofs form a unique archi­ tectural entity, reflecting the mercantile expansion of New York City, dating back to the era when New York Harbor was a port of sailing ships and theg were used as warehouses and stores for the many varied cargoes that came and \~Tent through the busy port. Spared by the fire of 1835, and over one hundred and fifty years old, this business block is the only remaining complex of commercial buildings in the Federal Style of architecture still standing in New York City. The row, standing on the south side of Fulton Street, consti­ tutes a business block running from Number 2 at South Street to Number 18 at Front Street.
