Designed c. 1928 as a department store building by Harry Creighton Ingalls for the Marbitz Realty Corporation using the remnants of a theater that was on the site prior. Tree-Mark Shoe Stores opened in the 1930's and remained there until the 1960's. Tree Mark Shoes maintained a custom department for the manufacture and fitting of shoes for abnormal feet and occupied the building for approximately 30 years. Subsequent tenants included other high-end retail stores, such as a haberdashery and a jewelry store. The building is now a music club called the Bowery Ballroom which opened in 1997 and has hosted artists like Metallica and Depeche Mode.
The Beaux Arts building is clad in limestone that forms rustication up to the cornice line. Above this, the parapet is clad in smooth limestone and inscribed with “Tree Mark Shoes.” A central double-height opening with voussoirs contains a glass, brass and iron entryway, which has been converted to a window. On either side of the entrance at the ground floor are matching openings with cornices. Decorative metal plaques are set above the openings. There are small octagonal windows on the second floor. A denticulated cornice with a frieze containing a repeating pattern of stylized Fleur de Lis extends across the façade above the second story.
