Visionary and Canceled Projects & Proposals | Discussion

This 550-foot-tall, 26-story project was planned for the site between the Washington Building and the Stevens Hotel (site of the Bowling Green Building). The foundation consists entirely of steel beams (flat foundation), this foundation would cover the entire base area under the cellar. Similar to the Equitable Life Building, an arcade would be located in the entrance area of the building. Which would run from Broadeay to Greenwich Street.
