6-story Romanesque-revival hotel completed in 1888. Designed by William Schickel & Company as a store and office building for John Jacob Astor's fur-coat factory, the red-brick building later served as artists' lofts and studios, and was converted to a hotel with 75 guest rooms in 1994 by Richard Born and Ira Drukier of BD Hotels.
The ground floor has wide horizontal stone bands on the brick piers, with black cast-iron infill, as well as four round-arches on the Mercer Street side. The ground floor is occupied by the hotel lobby, J. Crew, and the Mercer Kitchen restaurant, which also has a large sub-surface dining room.
On the Prince Street side, the upper floors are divided into four main bays of three windows, with two similar bays on the Mercer side flanking four single windows in the middle. The Prince Street and end bays are topped by a wide round-arches, with carved red stone around each arch. The four center windows on the Mercer side are also round-arched on the top floor, and set off by a cornice.
