  • Notes 
    • Adam Mackay Ganson (1862- ?), who emigrated from Scotland in 1862, was credited with being the George A, Fuller Company’s Superintendent of Construction for the Flatiron Building...in the parlance of the industry.."He built it". He and his wife, Maria Bull Ganson (daughter of the famous surgeon and scientist, George Joseph Bull) lived on Hamilton Avenue in New Rochelle. Adam is also said to have built the "Realty", "Pennsylvania Terminal", the "Trinity", and the "Trinity Annex Buildings", all for the George A. Fuller Company. The George A. Fuller Co. was considered to be the pioneer of the modern steel skeleton building. — David C. Garcelon April 17, 2009
