41 Park Row (building on the right), ca. 1975.
The third building to house the operations of the New York Times, 41 Park Row is the oldest of the surviving buildings of "Newspaper Row." Designed by George B. Post in 1889 to replace a smaller 1851 building, the 16-story, Romanesque Revival style structure was constructed around the core of the earlier building. The printing presses did not even need to be moved during the construction. In 1896 when the newspaper was bought by Adolf Ochs (whose family still runs it), he had an architect remove the mansard roof and add three more stories.
The New York Times moved uptown to their eponymous square in 1903. In 1951 the building was purchased by Pace University, who used the former cavernous area where the printing presses were located as a gym.
