The Gunther Building is an historic building at 469 Broome Street on the corner of Greene Street in the SoHo neighborhood of Manhattan, New York.
The building was designed by Griffith Thomas and completed in 1871 or 1872. The building features the cast-iron architecture which is common in the area, but is distinguished from its neighbors by its bright white facade, its richly decorated Corinthian columns, and its curved glass corner. The building is named after a prominent 19th century furrier. Originally the building warehoused textiles and furs; today it is used primarily by artists and architects.
The building is listed as contributing to the SoHo-Cast Iron Historic District on the National Register of Historic Places. In 2001 Beyhan Karahan and Associates completed a five-year project to restore the building's facade.
