Theodore Low De Vinne, a leading New York typographer and printer had the building constructed for his printing company. De Vinne died in 1914, and by 1922, the company ceased operations. The building was purchased in 1982 by the late Edwin Fisher. It is now occupied by the Astor Center, owned by the Fisher family.
