Notes: From the mid-forties until the late fifties 23 West 26th Street served as the U.S. Communist Party's headquarters. It housed its president, Gus Hall, and the editorial and publishing offices of the Communist newspaper "The Daily Worker". All the while, the building was under surveillance by the FBI. It also suffered a series of fire bombings that shattered the bay windows on the ground floor and set the offices ablaze. A weekend paper called 'The Worker' was published from 1958 until 1968.
