 In 1908, Best & Co. spent $500,000 to purchase the former Engineer's Club at 372 Fifth Avenue at 35th Street for a new store, joining an elite group of merchants to locate in that section of Fifth Avenue in the early 1900s, including B. Altman, Gorham (located at 889 Broadway), and Tiffany's (located at 15 Union Square West).This limestone building later became the Bond Clothing Stores flagship when Best moved farther up the avenue, and was later converted to apartments.Its final 12-story flagship store was located at Fifth Avenue and 51st Street, directly north of St. Patrick's Cathedral.
