110 Greenwich Street

 apartment building, 1929_construction

158-foot, 13-story residential building completed in 1929 as a 9-story printing house. Designed by William Higginson, it was also known as the Tyrrel Building. It was converted into 60 rental apartments in 1997, with a multi-story rooftop addition, set back from the north and east facades. The original floors are clad in yellow-beige brick, divided into five wide bays along Carlisle Street (four of them having triple windows, while the eastern bay has double windows), and two wide bays plus a narrow bay on the south end along Greenwich Street. The narrow bay has single windows on each floor, above a ground-level doorway framed in stone, while the wide bays have triple windows (and one double window) separated by black metal mullions. A stone sill course at the base of the 2nd story connects all the windows on that floor. Above, each triple window grouping has its own stone sill, and the single windows also have stone sills. All the windows have brick headers. The brick piers between each bay project slightly.

On the original building, the western two bays rose up eight floors, while the eastern part of the building has dentiled cornices capping each bay on the 8th floor, with another floor above where the windows are separated by brick pilasters instead of metal mullions. The rooftop addition is surfaced in plain concrete, and steps even further back on the top two floors. The lower three floors of the addition have concrete slab balconies with metal railings on the north elevation. The ground floor is occupied by Trinity Boxing Club.
