Notes
  • Significance: The ten-story office building at 105 Hudson Street served as the corporate headquarters of Colgate & Company from 1910 to 1930, and of Colgate-Palmolive-Peet from 1933 to 1956. Located in the Exchange Place area of Jersey City, the structure was immediately north of the company's large Jersey City manufacturing plant, managed from the office building before and after the corporate headquarters moved to Manhattan in 1956. The steel-framed, masonry-clad building is characteristic of early 20th century institutional design which utilized classical features, and is one of several such structures built in the Exchange Place area at this time. Most classicized features on the original eight story building were confined to exterior masonry, and some vestibule and lobby features. When recorded in 1987, the exterior survived intact, with the addition of two stories built 1933-34. Some vestibule and lobby ornament built c1910 or 1934 also remained in 1987, but the interior was otherwise heavily modified by numerous office rearrangements from c1934-1985.
