93 Reade Street, New York, N.Y.
Former Millers Falls Company office

The Millers Falls Company maintained its primary sales office and company headquarters at 93 Street, New York City, from 1887 to 1899. The office was located in a handsome five-story building that had been built in 1857 for a Mr. John Jones. An architectural treasure, the structure is especially noteworthy for a beautiful cast iron front that allows for an extensive fenestration to flood the the interior with natural light. Done in the Italianate style, the facade is exceptionally well-proportioned and is built from components manufactured locally at Daniel D. Badger's Architectural Iron Works.
