I set out to locate Voynich's Branch Houses for his Inculabula business in
Europe. From the location in Warsaw I do not really know what
"Centnerszwer i Ska" refers to, but I believe that I have come pretty
close to locating the address at 143 Marszalkowska in Warsaw,
Poland.
WARSAW : Centnerszwer i Ska, Marszalkowska, 143. (refer to
Voynich's business addresses at the bottom of the page; thanks to Petr
Kazil.)
Warsaw Map (the best online map that I have found showing where the Voynich
office would have been located. It seems that this Branch House was located at
the bottom left corner of Ogrod Saski, diagonally across the intersection
of Marszalkowska and Krolewska from the park.)

on the map at the corner of Marszalkowska and Krolewska at the bottom left
corner of Ogrod Saski)
Voynich seemed to like being near parks.

The closest location in Warsaw that I can find to Marszalkowska 143 is the
ORBIS office. I imagine that the Voynich location would have been across the
street from where ORBIS is located. It may very well be that the building
Voynich occupied in the early 1900s no longer stands.
