Cary Building (New York City)
The Cary Building at 105-107 Chambers Street, extending along Church Street to Reade Street, in the Tribeca neighborhood of Manhattan, New York City, was built in 1856-1857 and was designed by Gamaliel King and John Kellum ("King & Kellum")〔Gayle, Margot. ''Cast-Iron Architecture in New York'', 1974.〕 in the Italian Renaissance revival style, with the cast-iron facade provided by Daniel D. Badger's Architectural Iron Work. The five-story twin-facaded building was constructed for William H. Cary's Cary, Howard & Sanger, a dry goods firm.〔Gray, Christopher. ("Streetscapes: The 1857 Cast-Iron Cary Building at 105 Chambers Street; Facades Meant to be Seen, a Brick Wall that Wasn't" ), ''New York Times'' (16 July 2000) accessed 30 January 2011.〕〔, p.30〕
Although built as a commercial structure, the Cary Building is now residential. As a result of the widening of Church Street in the 1920s, a 200-foot-long wall of unadorned brick is now exposed on the east side of the building; as Christopher Gray observed in the ''New York Times'', comparing the structure to cast-iron buildings with facades obscured by modern signage, "There is not too little of the Cary Building but too much."
The building was designated a New York City landmark in 1982, and was listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places in 1983.〔 The building was once home to The New York Sun.
