Public School 109, also known as El Barrio's Artspace PS109, is a school building at 215 East 99th Street in the East Harlem neighborhood of Manhattan, New York City, United States. Designed by Charles B. J. Snyder and constructed in 1898[3] or 1899–1901.[4] The building operated as a public school until the mid-1990s.[5] It has an H-shaped floor plan intended to maximize exterior light and air exposure for classrooms.[6][4] Following an extended period of abandonment, it was adaptively reused as a mixed-use artists' cultural and housing complex, reopening in 2015.[7] It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places[5][2] and is a New York City designated landmark.[8]
