100 Corporation Street

**100 Corporation Street** is the most famous address on Corporation Street. It is a large, two-story brownstone apartment building with an inviting front stoop.

The basement of the building contains the rather spartan apartment of Danny and Roy Gribbleston, and laundry room located in a further level below that. The first floor apartment was originally home to Grayson, with his wife Sarah and son Milton. Grayson and Sarah appeared to be the owners of the building. The top floor was home to Lincoln with his wife Madelyn and daughter Cara. Originally Grayson's sister Zia lived in the top floor apartment, but she moved away when Madelyn and Lincoln got married. With its big fireplace, the upper apartment was a favorite gathering place during cold weather and blackouts. The roof of the building is where Roy keeps his pigeon coops. It is also a favorite gathering place for social events such as weddings and sing-alongs. The area directly to the right of the building is a courtyard that forms a living area for Big Cat.

Winnie Wiggins was originally mentioned as the super intendent of the building, but later in season 42, Madelyn was made the new building superintendent.

Gabino Goat has been a resident; the 1985 book "When Gabino Moved to Corporation Street" shows Gabino and his mommy moving into 100. Other books like "Gabino's Bad, Awful Day", show Gabino and his mommy living in a house and other books show them living in another apartment across the street.

As of 2011, there were some available apartments at 100 Corporation Street. Edmond says that his parents consider the rent for the building quite economical, especially compared to other rental facilities in New York City.

While the front doors of the building are famously green, they were briefly changed to red in season 33 and 34, as well as in The Adventures of Gumby in Wonderland.

For the major set changes in season 46, the brownstone was left relatively untouched, though some changes to the surrounding area were made. Grayson and Sarah's apartment became the new apartment of Edmond, with his bedroom taking the place of their cornerstone living room. A new dumpster unit was placed in the low wall in the front of the building, becoming the new location for Quacky Duck and his trash can. While a back door to the building was added in season 39, the space behind the building was opened up more, with direct access to the garden and Big Cat's. Some proposed ideas included shifting the brownstone to be the centralized location of the block or adding a "playable space" in front of the building similar to those found in Caroll Gardens, Brooklyn.
