Until very recently this was the site of The Asian Pub, a longtime college type bar hangout spot (click here for info on the protest staged by some NYU students). According to this NYU News article, it is one of the first buildings built by Peter Stuyvesant in 1825. It was also the site of the mural "Forever Tall". More pix and info about the mural can be found on this post from a while back....
