New hat and a cast iron building
 
Since many of you here are interested in home repair and buildings in
general, I though you may be interested in this place. The front of the
first floor is cast iron.

I went to New Haven today to buy a new Borsolino cap. I'm not sure of the
age of the building, but the business has been here since 1908. The bottom
photo shows the cast iron columns and header trim. Some building used cast
iron for structural support also.

I'm very interested in this stuff. I've seen a lot of "cast iron
buildings in SoHo in NYC, and it's good to see the range of them.

Thanks.

The northeast is a very interesting place to live. That's why I tried
not to move too far away (Baltiomre.)

What is the street address?
I looked through "New Haven, a Guide to Architecture & Urban Design"
and could find no mention of cast iron.
That book will give dates and some description of buildings in and
around town.

It might be
"Imperial Granum Building, built 1877, designed by Rufus G. Russell.
The great era of the cast-iron front largely passed New Haven by. This
is the only known example today.
Russell's drawing survives among his papers in the Historical
Society."
