Visible from the street; the inside is private.

Empsall's Building is an apartment structure in Watertown, New York, constructed in the early twentieth century and still standing today. Built around 1903–1905, the building exemplifies an eclectic approach to early-twentieth-century American commercial architecture, combining elements of Renaissance, Art Deco, and Neoclassical styles. Its facade is rendered in brick and concrete, materials well-suited to the modest urban context of upstate New York.
