General Baking Company building

Built in 1922, the General Baking Company building "originally served as a factory with attached stables in the rear," according to a study by students in the Historic Preservation Program of the Columbia University School of Architecture. The structure "demonstrates an evolution of industrial design from the masonry structures to the daylight factories of the late 1920s onward," adds the study, but with the company long since out of business, "the windows have been filled in."
