Back in the 1990's, I worked near this lower Manhatten building for years, assuming it was office space or maybe upscale apartments.

Boy, was I wrong.  The entire building (built in 1882, and the third building in NYC to have elevators) is empty, and has been abandoned for nearly 70 years.

And the interior is cool…
