3 East 57th Street

3 East 57th Street, originally the L. P. Hollander Company Building, is a notable nine-story commercial structure located in Midtown Manhattan, New York City. Constructed between 1929 and 1930 in an early Art Deco style by the architectural firm Shreve, Lamb & Harmon, the building features a distinctive facade with silver metal spandrels and gray limestone mullions. Initially serving as a clothing store, it has housed various tenants over the years, including a Stouffer's restaurant and currently a Yves Saint Laurent store. Designated as a landmark by the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission in 2003, the building is situated near iconic sites such as Central Park and Fifth Avenue, making it a point of interest for both tourists and researchers exploring the architectural and commercial history of Manhattan.
