4 Albany Street c. 1957 featuring the original rooftop garden. One of those buildings that slips through the cracks since it was demolished just before streetview and has practically no good documentation.

4 Albany Street seen from the Battery Garage c. 2004 just before demolition

Was anyone here active back on Wired NY? I remember lurking and seeing a thread about this building on WNY dating back to when it was standing, but the forum and pictures are gone from what I can gather

Always loved the Citicorp Center. It’s a much more suitable HQ (with 399 Park) than 388 Greenwich in my opinion.

Has anyone got pictures of the Mail service building on 237 park avenue before it’s redesign in 1981? I’ve got many but none of the base
