2229 1st Avenue South, also called the Black Diamond Building or the Magic City Casket Building, is a two-story, 10,000 square-foot brick commercial building constructed in 1891 as either a boarding house for railroad workers or as a brothel. It features a recessed corner entrance on 23rd Street South supported on a single cast-iron column.
By 1904 it was used by the Magic City Casket Co. and later housed the Child Furniture Co. Moore Co. and SoMo Galleries (1989-)
The building, which has since been linked with another brick building at 104 23rd Street South, is currently managed by Harbert Realty Services
