Fleming Smith Warehouse

The Fleming Smith Warehouse, designed in 1891 by notable New York Architect Stephen Decatur Hatch in the Romanesque Revival Style, was restored by Scott Henson Architect in 2012, which included masonry reconstruction, repairs to the original stone cladding, historic wood window replacement and cast iron restoration. In 2016, the building retained SHA to restore the original copper finials, which all had been lost or removed by the middle of the 1980s.

The finials were designed to withstand hurricane-force winds.
