Notes
  • Significance: Gasholder No. 2 is significant because of the role of gasholders in general in furthering residential and commercial development in urban areas. In addition, it is one of only a few remaining gas houses in the northeastern United States, a portion of the country where this type of industrial structure was once quite common.
  • Survey number: HAER NY-313
