640 Fifth Avenue Being Demolished


640 Fifth Avenue was the home of Mrs Cornelius Vanderbilt III and the last private residence in that part of the city. On all sides the home was towered over by skyscrapers. It was the last of a bygone era. It was replaced with the Crowell-Collier Building. Click HERE for more on the mansion. (Photo courtesy of the Museum of The City of New York).
