Originally the B. Altman Dry Goods Store, built 1876–77 (David & John Jardine), with addition on the south in 1887 by William H. Hume, and on West 18th Street by Buchman & Fox, 1909. B. Altman moved to Fifth Avenue and 34th Street in 1906. The current street retail occupant is The Container Store.
Margot Gayle, writing in ''Cast-Iron Architecture in New York: a Photographic Survey'' (1974), says of 83–87 Grand St., "Architect William H. Hume did it in 1883 as a silk showroom and warehouse – an addition to that section of the building ... which had been erected 10 years earlier. Perhaps it was part of an original grand plan, for the architect had the iron elements for this big addition cast in exactly the same design as for the first building, resulting in a unified whole. The older part of the building carries the date 1872 in its galvanized iron cornice, and displays the foundry label of Lindsay, Graff & Megquier." He is also credited with 83–87 Grand St., SW corner of Greene St. (1872) a "serene Tuscan over elaborate Corinithian".〔Norval White & Elliott Willensky, AIA Guide to New York City (4th ed., 2002)〕
William H. Hume & Son designed the Spingler Building (1896) at 5–9 Union Square West. It is located on the west side of Union Square between the Lincoln Building (Union Square West, Manhattan) and what once was the Tiffany’s cast iron building headquarters. It was built be William H. Hume & Son who were appointed by the firm of James L. Libby & Son, "who designed it as a commercial building". Other work included the Simpson Crawford Simpson Store (1900)〔〔() The Architectural Guidebook to New York City Gibbs Smith, 2002 422 pages〕 and plans for the Masonic Home and School in Utica, New York.〔(Architecture and Building, Volume 15 W.T.
