Ang dating sentro ng Ladies’ Mile noong huling bahagi ng ika-19 na siglo—kung saan sinasabing unang naging komportable ang mga babae sa malayang pamimili—ay nagbagong-anyo at naging pook na dinarayo ng pinakapiling mga mamimili ng tahanan sa lungsod.

Higit pa sa harapang istilong Queen Anne ang kahalagahang arkitektural ng Gorham Building. Kahanga-hanga ang tirahang ito at lampas sa inaasahan: may mahigit 40 talampakang mga bintana sa kabuuan ng pangunahing sala, nakaharap ito sa timog at silangan, may matataas na kisameng 12.5 talampakan, at napupuno ng tuluy-tuloy na likas na liwanag. Madaling maunawaan kung bakit pinili ng Gorham Silver Company ang mismong espasyong ito bilang showroom noong Gilded Age, kung saan inilantad nito ang pinakamaiinam nitong kagamitang panghapag sa isang kapaligirang karapat-dapat sa husay ng pagkakagawa ng mga ito.

Sinisira ng tirahang ito sa ikalawang palapag ang mga dati nang palagay tungkol sa mga yunit sa mabababang palapag. Nagiging karugtong ng espasyo ng tirahan ang arkitektura, at nag-aalok ito ng pambihirang ugnayan sa lungsod. Mula sa pangunahing sala, matatanaw ang Park Avenue, Union Square, at ang kapansin-pansing arkitektura ng ABC Carpet & Home Building sa iisang tingin. Dahil sa natatangi nitong lokasyon, kapwa pribado at bahagi ng sigla ng lungsod ang pakiramdam sa tirahang ito, na lumilikha ng natatanging balanse sa pagitan ng pag-iisa at pakikibahagi sa kapaligiran.

Nag-aalok ang pagsasanib ng lawak, liwanag, at ugnayan sa tanawin ng kalye ng pambihirang pagkakataong bigyang-bagong-buhay ang isang bahagi ng kasaysayan ng New York. Sa kasalukuyan, nakaayos ito bilang tirahang may dalawang silid-tulugan at isang banyo. Bukas at madaling iakma ang plano ng palapag nito, kaya maraming posibilidad para sa maingat na muling pagdidisenyo. Dalhin ang inyong pananaw sa pambihirang likhang-arkitekturang ito at ibalik ang dating karangyaan nito, habang binibigyang-bagong-kahulugan ang orihinal na tampok na showroom ng Gorham Silver bilang isang natatanging tahanan sa Manhattan.

Nasa mainam na lokasyon ang 889 Broadway, sa pagitan ng Madison Square Park, Union Square, at Gramercy Park—sa pagtatagpo ng arkitektura, kultura, kainan, at pang-araw-araw na buhay sa lungsod. Madaling mararating ang Union Square Greenmarket, mga restawrang pangmundo, mga café sa kapitbahayan, mga nangungunang fitness club, at pambihirang koleksiyon ng mga tindahan.

Itinayo noong 1883 ng arkitektong si Edward Hale Kendall, ang Gorham Building sa 889 Broadway ay isang pangmatagalang halimbawa ng estilong Queen Anne. May walong palapag ang pulang-laryong gusaling ito, na pinalamutian ng mga detalye mula sa terracotta at cast iron at may bubong na Dutch Mansard. Ipinakikita ng harapan nito ang husay ng pagkakagawa noong ibang panahon. Orihinal itong idinisenyo na may mga komersiyal na espasyo sa mga mababang palapag at mga tirahan sa itaas. Naging kaugnay ito ng Gorham Manufacturing Company, na ang mga gawang pilak ay kumatawan sa tugatog ng disenyong Amerikano at kalidad noong Gilded Age.

Noong 1977, ginawang kooperatibang residensiyal ang gusali. Noong 1984, opisyal itong itinalagang makasaysayang pook, kaya natiyak ang puwesto nito sa kasaysayang arkitektural at pangkultura ng Flatiron District.

May full-time na superintendent, na-update na sistema ng seguridad na may video, at elevator na binubuksan gamit ang susi ang boutique co-op na ito. Kabilang sa mga amenidad ng Gorham Building ang inayos at nilagyan ng mga kasangkapan na rooftop at isang nakatalagang storage unit na kasama sa titulo ng ari-arian. Tumatanggap ng alagang hayop ang gusali para lamang sa mga pangunahing tirahan. May espesyal na singil na $2,645 hanggang Pebrero 2028.
