Finchley's or later Finchley's Castle was known as one of the best New York menswear stores. It was founded by Edmund L. GOODMAN in 1916, when he opened his haberdashery, Finchley’s, at No. 5 West 46th Street. Quickly the English-styled clothier would achieve a moneyed following, causing The Clothier and Furnisher to say, in 1924, “Finchley’s has for many years enjoyed the reputation of being one of New York’s most exclusive men’s shops.” In that year Edmund L. GOODMAN changed the address of his shop for 5th Avenue. He acquired the Euclid Building and commissioned architect Beverly KING to do a makeover. GOODMAN wanted an English atmosphere for his tweeds and ties and KING did it. By the end of 1924 store opened in what was now known as “Finchley’s Castle.” Edmund GOODMAN died in 1952, but Finchley’s stayed on in its Tudor castle until the 1970s.
