600 W 116th Street is a Barnard College residence hall on the corner of 116th Street and Broadway. Some non-students tenants also live in the building. Ollie's is located on the 1st floor. A major fire broke out in the building in March 2015, cutting off gas to the building (as was causing Ollie's and Vine to close temporarily/indefinitely). The cause of the fire is still being investigated.
