That's what I wondered from September 2005 when writing this brief article (http://www.dougloudenback.com/downtown/vintage/1.unknown.htm) in my regular, non-blog "vintage" web pages about the "skeleton" building once located at the southeast corner of Park Avenue & Hudson:

If you've looked at the "Famous Kiltie Band" postcard ...

... you may have noticed that a nice looking building, which looks nothing like a "skeleton" building, is to the west and south of the band, at the stated intersection.
Until doing some follow-up research late last night on the query I had in September 2005, I didn't know. Anyway, the mystery is now solved!
Before looking at the answer at Doug Dawgz Blog: The Gladish Building -- What? (http://dougdawg.blogspot.com/2008/04/gladish-building-what.html) , you might make your own "best guesses," should you want to.
Anyway, a question which has been lurking in the back of my mind since September 2005 may now be put to rest!
