TheAmerican Thread Building is a historic building located at 260West Broadway on the corner of Beach Street in theTriBeCa neighborhood ofLower Manhattan,New York City. The eleven story building was designed in theRenaissance Revival style by architectWilliam B. Tubby, and built in 1896. It was originally known as theWool Exchange Building, and owned by the Wool Warehouse Company; however the Wool Company did not succeed and the building was acquired by the American Thread Company in 1907.[2]

In 1979, a group of young artists made a stand against real estate developerHarry B. Macklowe. He emptied a 93% occupied building of its rent-paying tenants, with the help of the J51 tax abatement offered by then NYC mayorEd Koch.[citation needed] It was a lost battle in the New York City courts and the building was renovated and converted into live/work lofts in 1981.[3][4]

The building was added to theNational Register of Historic Places on January 20, 2005.

In 2007, a renovation of one of the units uncovered an early work by artistKeith Haring.[5]
