Knights of Columbus Building, Modernist skyscraper in Downtown New Haven, United States.
The Knights of Columbus Building features a design of five towers with four concrete cylinders at the corners supporting longitudinal girders of 27 meters.
Completed in 1969 by architects Kevin Roche and John Dinkeloo, this 23-story structure marks the headquarters of the Roman Catholic fraternal service organization.
The four cylindrical corner towers represent fundamental values of the Knights of Columbus organization: Charity, Unity, Fraternity, and Patriotism.
Located at One Columbus Plaza, the 98-meter tall building functions as an office space with integrated mechanical systems and clear heights of 3.66 meters.
The exterior construction includes bronze-toned paving stones cladding the concrete cylinders, while exposed structural girders create a distinct architectural pattern.
