Opened in 1908 as the East 23rd Street Bathhouse, the building was designed to echo the style of ancient
Roman baths. Later, it was named for Asser Levy, the first Jewish citizen of the colony of New Amsterdam
and the first kosher butcher in America. The building was designated a New York City landmark in 1974.
