ONE WALL STREET

Originally designed by Ralph Walker, One Wall Street was first built in the late 1920s and early 1930s. Then known as the Irving Trust Company Building, the Art Deco gem would get renamed in its second and third iterations, respectively, as the Bank of New York Building and the BNY Mellon Building. In 2018, the limestone skyscraper got a fourth wind when it was purchased by Harry Macklowe, whose development company set to work converting it from office to residential space.

With an expected opening in Fall 2021, One Wall Street will house 566 residential condos, with apartments ranging in size from one to four bedrooms, including a three-story penthouse in the building’s famed crown. Forty-seven units will have private decks with views of the skyline and the New York Harbor. There will also be nearly 160,000 sq. ft. of retail on the bottom floors, including a Whole Foods and Life Time Fitness, and a new entrance constructed on Broadway. Best of all, the building’s famed Red Room — a hidden lobby dotted with fiery red and orange mosaics — has been restored to its original glory.
