Carter's Review

This handsome, 12-story, mid-block building at 116 West 14th Street  between the Avenue of the Americas and Seventh Avenue in Greenwich Village was erected in 1912.  It was converted to a residential condominium in 1997 and its first and second floors have commercial space. 

It has 19 apartments. 

It was designed by Louis Korn, whose other buildings include the 1894 Noho Building at 627 Broadway, the 1900 91 Fifth Avenue, 736 Broadway, the 1901 Houghton Mifflin & Company building, 1911 20 West 22nd Street and the 1926 103 Fifth Avenue building.
