The Deutsch-Amerikanische Schützengesellschaft (“German-American Marksmen Society”) at 12 St. Marks Place (8th Street) in the Little Germany neighborhood of East Village, Manhattan, New York City, was the clubhouse for a German-American marksmen's club—although they did their shooting elsewhere. The building, which says Einigkeit macht stark (“Unity makes strong”) in the crest at the top, was designed by William C. Frohne and built in 1885. It has been a NYC landmark since 2001. The style of the building is German Renaissance. (Sources: AIA Guide to NYC (4th ed.), NYC Landmarks (4th ed.))
