Building Description

Straddling the border of NoHo and Greenwich Village, the Cable Building was constructed between 1892 and 1894. Built by architectural firm McKim, Mead & White, it made history as the first commercial building to completely use a steel frame. Steel is hardly the only calling card of the Cable Building, which also boasts terra-cotta, stone, and brick facing along with a limestone base. Lions' face dot a copper cornice. Its original tenant was the Metropolitan Traction Company and it now hosts the Angelika Film Center in its basement; the rest of the floors are occupied by commercial office space.

Because it straddles an entire city block, the Cable Building has a second address of 178-188 Mercer Street. It contains 140,000 square feet of office space, but its grandest tenant, the Traction Company, was out of business by 1901 when traction went out of fashion, replaced by electricity. In 1999, the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission designated the Cable Building as part of the NoHo Historic District. Sharing space with the Angelika Film Center means an instant after-work entertainment choice.
