The sign advertising rooms $1 up (later $1.50) shows that, at this time, it was a cheap hotel. Around 1913 / 1914, the New Grand Hotel (name of the old Grand Hotel used since around 1904) changed to Manger Grand Hotel. Later it became Milner Hotel, Hadson Hotel and Clark Apartments, in sequence. In 1979, the building was designated as a landmark by the Landmarks Preservation Commission of the City of New York.
