    The roofline carries small posts along the parapet, stepped penthouse blocks and a water tank. Print friendly adapts these small parts; Full detail keeps them for bigger prints.

  2. Layers of arched windows

    The tall brick facade is covered in arcades and narrow windows. A larger print size and a 0.12-0.16 mm layer height keep the arch lines distinct.

  3. One piece with the ground

    The Puck Building is joined to the ground in the exported file, and the four-side check found no floating parts, so nothing needs gluing.

  4. Pick the detail for your nozzle

    In the Buildings settings, set Landmark detail to Print friendly to adapt thin parts and small details to the print scale. Full detail keeps every modeled feature, for larger prints or a finer nozzle.

  6. File format

    You get a 3MF for Bambu Studio, OrcaSlicer or PrusaSlicer. Any of them can save it as STL if you need one.

About the Puck Building

The Puck Building stands at 295–309 Lafayette Street, in Manhattan's Nolita and SoHo areas. Albert Wagner designed it in the Romanesque Revival style, with touches drawn from the German Rundbogenstil. The northern part is an original seven-story building, and an annex of nine stories lies to the south. The whole structure fills a full block, with Lafayette Street on the west, Houston on the north, Mulberry on the east and Jersey on the south.

The brick facade is red and split into bays of equal width and into tiers of arcades, whose arches are wider at the top and narrower at the bottom. Henry Baerer made two sculptures of Puck, the Shakespeare character, for the facade, and a penthouse structure caps the building. The street's extension through the area in the late 1890s led to demolition of the western section. Herman Wagner designed the new Lafayette Street front, in a style close to the original.

The building long housed Puck magazine, a cartoon humor title. Its founders, Joseph Keppler and Adolph Schwarzmann, bought the land in 1885 alongside J. Ottmann. The first building was done a year later, and the annex followed between 1892 and 1893. Puck magazine closed in 1918, and printing firms used the structure for decades afterward. It has New York City landmark designation and a National Register listing as well.
