  • 14 Wall Street Building (Bankers Trust Building)
    Landmarks Preservation Commission January 14, 1997; Designation List 276 LP-1949 14 WALL STREET BillLDING (Formerly Bankers Trust Building), 14 Wall Street (aka 8-20 Wall Street; 1-11 Nassau Street; and 7-15 Pine Street), Manhattan. Built 1910-12; architect Trowbridge & Livingston; addition, 1931-33, architect Shreve, Lamb & Harmon. Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 46, Lot 9. On September 17, 1996, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the 14 Wall Street Building, and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No. 1). 1 The hearing was continued to November 19, 1996 (Item No. 1). The hearings had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of Jaw. Three witnesses -- Council Member Kathryn Freed and representatives of the Municipal Art Society and New York Landmarks Conservancy -­ spoke in favor of designation; there were no speakers in opposition. The owner of the property has not expressed opposition to this designation. Summary The 14 Wall Street Building, with its distinctive pyramidal roof, is one of the great towers that define the lower Manhattan sky line. Located in the heart of the financial district, the building was erected in 1910-12 for the Bankers Trust Company. Symbolizing the importance of the company, the 539-foot-high 14 Wall Street Building was the tallest bank building in the world when it was completed. Designed by the prestigious firm of Trowbridge & Livingston, this granite-clad tower incorporated the latest in building technologies and was one of the first buildings to employ a cofferdam foundation system.

  • Chapter XXIV on the Miner's Exchange List, the Most Interesting
    Chapter XXIV On the Miner’s exchange list, the most interesting newspaper to me was the New York Herald. It was loaded with want ads, not only the Sunday edition, but also every day of the week. The personal columns were a never-failing source of interest to me, and every day I would pore over the wants and troubles of the “agony column” to the exclusion of every story of war, pesti- lence, tragedy, pathos, or bathos. Time had slipped quickly by, and I was going on thirty-six and still “heart and fancy free.” The girls of Silverton of marriageable age were few, and the one I knew best and some- times escorted to dances always showed alarm when I started to get serious. I had a good home but no one to share it with, with as little prospect of finding a suitable companion as Robison Crusoe on his desert Island. It was therefore not surprising that one day, in casting my eye over the day’s personals in the latest copy of the New York Herald, I was suddenly transfixed by the following: “To ladies, unattached, afflicted with a sense of ennui, would correspond with a West- ern gentleman. X Y Z, Washington Star.” I cut out the advertisement and spent half the night in framing a letter that would attract those ladies and relieve them of their ennui, a letter which would stand apart from the hundreds of answers they would receive. As a matter of fact, they did receive hundreds of letters, and no longer did they complain of that tired feeling.
