1934: Arson and Homicide, the New York Cats on the Job at Police Headquarters » Centre Market

Demolishing Centre Street Market

When the old Centre Market was torn down in 1904 (shown here), Brian Hughes moved his company to a seven-story building at 133-137 Mulberry Street. Brian hired a sign painter to paint “Not for Sale” on the building, about 150 feet from the ground. He told the painter to add “Post No Bills” for good measure.
