Washington Square

1514-1546 Washington Ave.
Architect: Eames & Young

Built as the Ely & Walker Dry Goods Company, this vast block is one of the biggest on the street. The ground level is currently occupied by Gold's Gym.

Washington Square is the red building right of center in the postcard view at lower right, looking east from 18th Street. The large white building to its right is gone. At the right edge is 1706 Washington Ave. What a site it must have been to have three such buildings in a row! At the left edge stands the King Bee Building.
