About the Merchants Refrigerating Company Warehouse

At 501 West 16th Street, also numbered 99 Tenth Avenue, in Manhattan's Chelsea neighborhood, stands an 11-story industrial building: the Merchants Refrigerating Company Warehouse. John B. Snook & Sons designed it, and it was developed between 1916 and 1918 with simple Renaissance Revival decorations.

The footprint is about 330 feet by 200 feet (101 by 61 meters), filling a trapezoidal lot that takes up a full city block, between 16th and 17th Streets and between Tenth and Eleventh Avenues. Its facade mixes cast stone, buff brick, granite and terracotta, with brick piers separating the bays. Horizontal bands above the third and tenth floors split it into three layers.

It was built with very few windows to keep cold air in, and windows were later inserted between the bays. At completion it ranked as the world's largest refrigerated warehouse. After a sale in 1983 it was first proposed for conversion into a mall, then renovated as office space with windows added.
