40 Wall Street | Vibepedia

40 Wall Street is a 927-foot Neo-Gothic skyscraper completed in 1930 in New York City, designed by H. Craig Severance and Yasuo Matsui. Built in an unprecedented eleven months as the headquarters of the Manhattan Company, it briefly held the title of world's tallest building before losing to the Chrysler Building's secret spire. The building remains a historic landmark and architectural icon of the late 1920s speculative real estate boom.
