The Unsung Story of 190 Bowery

Built in the late 19th Century, this was the Germania Bank (after numerous mergers and acquisitions, it is now better known as J.P. Morgan) Building. The six-story, 72-room bank was bought by artist Jay Maisel in 1966 for $102,000, who remains its current owner. Estimates of the buildings worth run from a conservative $30 million to a whopping $70 million.
