The edifice, located at Broadway and Warren Street, burned entirely during a fire which accounted for more than $1,000,000 in property losses.〔 ==Building history==
For twenty-five years the ground floor of the Rogers Peet Building was occupied by Devlin & Company, a business of tailors. They paid an annual rental of $45,000 during their occupancy of the structure. The Rogers Peet Building had a double basement, with a lower cellar which was the opening of a tubular railway company. The Beach Pneumatic Transit railway ran across Broadway to Mall Street. Its construction was the beginning of the underground railway system concept in New York City. The tunnel was built around 1873. It was used as a shooting gallery after the abandonment of the underground railroad idea.〔
