THE GERMAN SAVINGS BANK

The thin elements, sharp detail, and high relief possible

With the use of cast-iron elements made for a new kind 

of light but vigorous architectural expression that affected 

even conventional construction, and large glass areas were 

attempted as well in masonry buildings such as the German

Savings Bank, at the southeast corner of 14th Street and 

Fourth Avenue.  It was built in 1870-72, with Henry Fernbach

the architect.  An apartment house now occupies the site.
