It is across the street from the very popular P.S. 234, which is noted for the nautical design by Richard Dattner of its fence and the building also has a Whole Foods store and a Barnes & Noble store. Its double-height lobbies have murals by Roy Lichtenstein and the building was designed with a distinctive, elongated "checkerboard" façade design.

An earlier building at 101 Warren Street, the Tarrant Building, was destroyed by an explosion and fire in October 1900.[4][5]

The Mattlage Building, a 12-story office building, was later built at the site and numbered as 97–101 Warren Street. In 1942, the building was sold by a person or company identified as "Irving".[6] In 1951, plans were announced to sell the building by auction.[7] In 1957, Office Structure bought the building.[8]
