nythroughthelens: 240 Centre Street. Police Building Apartments. Soho/Nolita, New York City. Buy “Ornate Centre Street Building” Posters and Prints here, View my store, email me, or ask for help. I love this building so much. It was built in 1909 and the dome is made entirely out of copper. The building is known as ‘Police Building Apartments’ which pays homage to its history: “240 Centre Street, formerly the New York City Police Headquarters building, between Broome and Grand Streets in the Nolita neighborhood of Manhattan, New York City, was built in 1905-1909, and was designed by the firm of Hoppin &amp; Koen. It housed the headquarters of the New York City Police Department from 1909 to 1973, and was converted into luxury condominiums in 1988 by the firm of Ehrenkranz Group &amp; Eckstut. It is now known as the Police Building Apartments.”Source
