Overview of The Tulip Building at 421 Broome Street

The Tulip Building, a cast iron building at 421 Broome Street, in Soho, dates back to 1873. Over the years, it has served as the offices of the NYC Board of Education, a typewriter manufacturer, and an art gallery before going residential in 2004.
