Puck Building is a rust-color building located at 295-309 Lafayette Street, in the Lower East Side of Manhattan, New York City. It was designed by Albert and Herman, who drew inspiration from the German Rundbogenstil of the 19th century.
The Puck Building got its name because it was the base for the satirical magazine Puck from 1887 to 1916. It even held the distinction, at the turn of the 20th century, to being the biggest structure in the world used for lithography and publishing.
Today Puck Building is often the venue for plush parties and social functions. It is also used for photoshoots. There are two statues of Puck on the Puck Building They stand on pedestals, so look up to see them. One is at the corner of Mulberry and Houston Streets while the other is just above the entrance to the building facing Lafayette Street.
