Building originally built by Henry Sengstacken about 1900 as a barbershop and home, but when the barber tenant backed out of the deal, the Sengstackens moved in and lived there while their house on the corner of Broadway and Central Avenue was being built.
In the 1920's and 1930's this was the site of Klingelhoffer's Meat Market and the Central Park National Bank. This bank closed its doors when Franklin D. Roosevelt declared a Bank Holiday on March 6, 1933 and never reopened. It is believed that depositors recovered at least 50% of their money.
