The Decker Building—periodically referred to as the Union Building—is located at 33 Union Square West in Manhattan, New York City. Built in 1892 for the Decker Brothers piano company according to designs by the radical anarchist architect John H. Edelmann, working out of the offices of Alfred Zucker, it replaced the earlier Decker Building on the same lot, designed by Leopold Eidlitz and built in 1869. Andy Warhol had his Factory on the sixth floor of this building from 1968 through 1973. It is also where Valerie Solanas shot Warhol and art critic and curator Mario Amaya in 1968.Building descriptionThe building is only 33 feet wide and 138 feet deep on a lot that goes back 150 feet . It has a right of way to 16th Street from the rear of the building. The style of the building mixes influences from Venice and Islamic traditions. There are numerous terra cotta details on the façade which remain today. There was a minaret on the roof which disappeared before World War II.The building was valued at $285,000 in 1913, after which it was traded to settle debts.Warhol yearsIn 1967, Warhol had to move his Factory from East 47th street due to the building being torn down. Union Square at the time was hardly an upscale neighborhood, but Paul Morrissey had found the loft, in this building, and Warhol agreed to move there. Morrissey by then had met Jed Johnson and hired him to help out with the refinishing of the space. It was around this time (or just prior to it) that Morrissey introduced him to Warhol.
We believe as contemporary lifestyles continue to change, we strive to create adaptable design. Our culture takes root in a collaborative and creative atmosphere. We are individuals with a wide range of passions, education, and experiences. Our team of architects, designers, and thinkers operate with the common belief that good design has the potential to transform lives. The Echo team continues to experiment and build a creative culture, catalyzing design innovation. Ajay Chopra is the founding principal of Echo Design and Architecture. Raised within the booming punk subculture of London, Ajay grew up in an array of visual arts, fashions, and music. At twelve, Ajay and his family moved into India's capital, New Delhi, where he continued to take interest in design. Upon moving to the United States and completing his architectural education, he worked for many notable New York City and London-based architectural firms. His completed projects include co-working office spaces, high-end residential and retail builds, temporary installations, and a wide range of other creative works. Echo represents the product of his diverse cultural upbringing and his willingness to engage in all facets of design in response to the dynamic social, cultural, and technological advances of today's world.
