St. Paul Building, Early 20th-century skyscraper in Manhattan Financial District, United States

The St. Paul Building rises 96 meters into the Manhattan skyline, featuring architectural elements that characterize the early development of New York's high-rise structures.

Completed in 1898 under the direction of architect George B. Post, the St. Paul Building marked a significant advancement in vertical construction techniques of its time.

The structure represents the rapid expansion of Manhattan's commercial district during the late 19th century, when businesses sought prestigious office spaces in tall buildings.

Located at the intersection of Ann Street and Broadway, the building provides direct access to multiple subway lines and remains an active commercial space.

The building's original steel frame construction and load-bearing walls demonstrated innovative engineering methods that influenced subsequent skyscraper developments in New York City.
