Parker Building (New York City)

[3] Government experts appraised paintings and statuary from the Don Marcello Massaranti collection of Italian art on the 10th floor of the Parker Building in July 1902.

He eventually moved the art to his own gallery at Charles and Centre Streets in Baltimore, Maryland.

The hotel was separated from the Parker Building by a narrow alley measuring fifteen feet.

[8] It was erroneously reported that the fire was started by members of an Armenian Hunchakist sect which was targeting the A & M Karagheusian company, a rug importing firm, located on the fourth floor of the Parker Building.

Nevrovzyan vowed to inflict $200,000 in damages to the Karagheusian business, but did not name the Parker Building in making his threat.

He promised to reveal to the Turkish government a revolutionary plot which he claimed Karagheusian's brother, Arshag, was interested in.
