I don't know a book off the top of my head other than general NYC history, so you could try these:\n\nGotham : A History of New York City to 1898 by Edwin G. Burrows and Mike Wallace\n\nThe Epic of New York City : A Narrative History by Edward Robb Ellis \n\nThere is this book, but I don't know it:\nThe Bronx (Columbia History of Urban Life) Evelyn Gonzalez\n\nBoth Columbia University and Lehman College might serve as good resources. Columbia has all sorts of info and documents pertaining to NYC. Go to the Columbia NYC Guide page and there are tons of resources there (link below). I don't know of any specific resources at Lehman, but call the library. The school is located in the Bronx and CUNY is a pretty good institution when it comes to New Yorkness. I'm sure they have some archive or the librarians are Bronx geniuses or something. I would give them a call. The homepage is listed below as well.

Getting a bulding's history can be tough, and unless it's a famous building, you're not likely to find much on the Internet. I'd suggest hitting the local library and looking for books on local history first; if nothing pans out there, you can ask a librarian to let you look at old copies of newspapers, although that can be a bit exhausting (especially if your library hasn't switched away from microfiche yet...)\n\nAside from book research, I'd see if you could track down the owner of the building or even people who have worked there a long time or used to work there.

They have a website, but the archives don't seem to have that name in them.  You could try searching the site for others relevant words or call/e-mail the newspaper for the copy.  The local library should also have it, but you'd have to make a photocopy.

Many old city directories available online.  Many of them are in PDF format, so you can search by address rather than name. Just google the name of your town and the words "city directory".\n\nFor example, this site:  http://dca.tufts.edu/features/bostonstreets/people/directories.html\noffers the city directories for Boston for a number of years from 1845 to 1925.\n\nYou can also search the census through 1930 for your address.  \n\nMost public libraries have the census available through ancestry.com or heritagequest.com for free.  You may be able to access the services from home using your library card.

Hey, I just did a quick search for New York City Architecture and found this web site.\nhttp://www.greatgridlock.net/NYC_Images/imgalpha.html\n\nWhen you go there scroll down and they have the building in alphabetical order with the dates that they were built in parentheses next to them.  Look for the dates in your time period.  There are a few.  You will get an idea of what buildings were around then.
