Old New York Evening Post Building, Art Nouveau office building in Financial District, Manhattan, United States.

The fourteen-story structure features three tall bays of cast-iron framed bow windows separated by limestone piers along its main facade at 20 Vesey Street.

Built between 1906 and 1907, architect Robert D. Kohn designed this headquarters for the New York Evening Post newspaper, which operated there until 1926.

Four rooftop sculptures represent the Periods of Publicity, with two figures created by Mount Rushmore sculptor Gutzon Borglum and two by Estelle Rumbold Kohn.

The building gained recognition as a New York City Landmark in 1965 and earned a place on the National Register of Historic Places in 1977.

The copper-covered mansard roof extends two stories high, incorporating design elements inspired by Parisian boulevard architecture of the early twentieth century.
