177 Franklin Street is a historic six-story commercial building located on Franklin Street between Hudson and Greenwich streets in the TriBeCa neighborhood of Manhattan in New York City.[7][3] Frederick Jenth designed the building for William Grupe; construction started in 1887 and was finished the next year.[7] The structure was originally designed as a five-story building; a sixth story was added in 1890.[7][8]

The building has a neo-Grec façade composed of a one-story base and a five-story upper section.[7] Some surviving historic features include a pressed metal cornice, prominent brick-and-stone lintels, a brick corbel table, wood sash windows, and cast-iron piers from the Lindsay, Graff & Megquier foundry,[9] as indicated on two clear foundry marks.[7]
