So I was in New York this past weekend for the annual Origami USA convention and I notice that one of the building next to where the convention was held (at the Fashion Institute of Technology, if you're curious) had a very odd title......
Full report to come soon, when I finally decide to upload the pictures I took onto flickr.
Also this will probably become my ID soon. So it'll be moved to scraps soon enough.

Well, it isn't actually part of the FIT building. It's actually across the street (it is next to the dorms however).
googled it and I this is what I got:
"This 14-story garment loft building was designed by William I Hohauser and constructed in 1927-28. The building served a number of furriers by providing showroom and factory space. The tripartite arched entrance gives way to a series of setbacks crowned by stone turrets on the upper floors. It has been determined eligible for NYC landmark status. The Fur Art building is indicative of the garment loft type found throughout the subdistrict."
