  • Hotel Martinique, 1260 Broadway, Aka 1260-1268 Broadway, 49-51 West 32Nd Street, and 54- 58 West 33Rd Street, Manhattan
    Landmarks Preservation Commission May 5, 1998, Designation List 292 LP-1983 Hotel Martinique, 1260 Broadway, aka 1260-1268 Broadway, 49-51 West 32nd Street, and 54- 58 West 33rd Street, Manhattan. Built 1897-98, 1901-03, 1909-11; architect, Henry J. Hardenbergh. Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 834, Lot 11. On February 10, 1998, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation of the Hotel Martinique (Item No. 2) . The hearing was duly advertised according to the provisions of law. There were two speakers in favor of designation and the representative of the owner stated that they were not opposed to designation. Summary The Hotel Martinique, a major work of the prominent designer Henry J. Hardenbergh, was constructed in three phases, in 1897-98, 1901-03, and 1909- 11. Developer William R. H. Martin, who had invested heavily in real estate in this area of the city, built and expanded the hotel in response to the growth of entertainment, shopping, and transportation activities in this busy midtown section. Martin hired the distinguished architect Henry J. Hardenbergh, who had acquired a reputation for his luxury hotel designs, including the original Waldorf and Astoria Hotels, as well as the Plaza. In his hotel and apartment house designs, Hardenbergh created picturesque compositions based on Beaux-Arts precedents, giving special care to interior planning and appointments. For the sixteen-story, French Renaissance­ inspired style Hotel Martinique, the architect capitalized on the openness made possible by Greeley Square, to show off the building's boldly-scaled mansard roof, with its towers, and ornate dormers.

    Landmarks Preservation Commission December 14, 2010 Designation List 436 LP-2432 ROGERS, PEET & COMPANY BUILDING, 258 Broadway (aka 258-259 Broadway, 1-11 Warren Street), Manhattan Built 1899-1900, John B. Snook & Sons, architects; 1909 addition, Townsend, Steinle & Haskell, architects. Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 134, Lot 25 On June 22, 2010, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the Rogers, Peet & Company Building and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Public Hearing Item No. 11). The hearing had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of law. Two people spoke in favor of designation, including a representative of the Historic Districts Council.1 Summary The Rogers, Peet & Company building is an eight-story neo- Renaissance style commercial and office building designed by the firm of John B. Snook & Sons. Constructed in 1899-1900 for clergyman Eugene A. Hoffman, the building was occupied by Rogers, Peet & Co., a well-known retailer of men’s and boys’ clothing, for a period of more than 70 years. The Rogers, Peet & Co. building is an early example of a steel skeleton-framed skyscraper influenced by the Chicago school of architects, and stands out among a group of important early skyscrapers located in the vicinity of City Hall, New York’s original skyscraper district, for its clear articulation of the structural grid and restrained use of stylized classical ornament. Constructed using the latest in fireproofing technologies, the building expresses its structural steel framing in the wide window bays on the east and north facades that are divided by strong vertical brick piers and recessed cast-iron or brick spandrels.
