Altman Building

Description

It's difficult to describe exactly what the Altman Building looks like, because its appearance changes drastically for each event. The landmark building, built in 1896 originally as a carriage house for the B. Altman department store, was renovated in 1998. The 10,000-square-foot space, with ash wooden floors and a vaulted brick ceiling (plus additional gallery space downstairs) is now a favorite spot for Fashion Week shows, corporate banquets, and nonprofit fundraisers.
