Notes:

Title derived from notes in ink on drawings, and attributed to New York City locale, unverified. These drawings have been attributed to Gardiner based upon the handwriting of the ink notes, similar to the "Henry Young" store drawings, 199 Broadway, cataloged separately, which have Gardiner's ID.

Client name identified by Laverty as J.L. James, was previously identified in the accession inventory as J.L. Harris(?).

Drawing GAR*003*001 is a side elevation, showing no entrance, and a building with 7 stories. The size & window configuration suggests an office building or retail store, rather than the residence suggested in Laverty. The second drawing shows four window details.

Forms part of: New York and New Jersey architecture collection.
