Zucker (b. 1852), an architect who practiced in Texas, Mississippi and New York, was instrumental in the development of a new mercantile district on lower Broadway in the late 1880s and designed many warehouses and loft buildings in New York City. He formed a partnership with James Riely Gordon in 1902, but fled to Montevideo, South America in 1904 to escape a lawsuit filed by Gordon who alleged fraud and misrepresentation. Consists of 761 architectural drawings (1880-1902) representing 30 projects, as well as 39 volumes of clippings from architectural periodicals which are organized and bound by building type.
