538 East 11th Street Public Bath

Cost: $124,989

This bath house served a neighborhood of German and Irish immigrants. The building is one block north of Tompkins Square Park, a site initially selected in 1896 for a public bath but rejected in the face of significant community opposition. The building survived as a private residence.
