I've long been intrigued by this small trick building on Fulton Mall, largely because of its unusual, curbed cornice, which appears to be original. I've not been able to find out anything about its past life. Anyone out there known anything?
According DOB records, there were clothing makers located on the second and third floors as late as the late 1910's. Also, Lain's 1887 Brooklyn Directory listed a Harding Mfg. Co. which made men's underwear,as an occupant.

What I like about Fulton Mall is that it isn't really a mall - it still features buildings like this. (No idea what it is, though.)
