  • SummaryCaption: "Oppenheim, Collins & Co's modern store building appears in this architect's sketch as even the store's best customers never have seen it. A photograph would show the facade partially obscured by structure. Removal of the ugly Fulton St. elevated Black Spider will make this sketch a reality."
