A residential building called Schwab House, located between 73 and 74 streets on West End Avenue, Riverside Drive, at number 11 in New York. The seventeen-story red-brick building was built in 1950 and was named after Charles Michael Schwab on February 18, 1862 and October 18, 1939, an American businessman and industrial steel magnate. Under his leadership, Bethlehem Steel has become one of the largest metallurgical companies in the world. When he had already become a very wealthy man, he moved to New York, where in the Upper Westside area, he built the Riverside mansion or Charles Schwab House, which became the most luxurious private house in the city. After Schwab's death, New York Mayor Fiorello La Guardia refused to relocate to Riverside, believing it too luxurious.
