Baudouine Building

The Baudouine Building is a commercial structure in Manhattan featuring neoclassical design. Its facade displays substantial columns, rectangular windows, and symmetrical elements based on classical Greek and Roman principles.

The building was constructed during Manhattan's commercial district expansion in the late 1800s. It represents the application of neoclassical design principles to American architecture of that period.

The building stands as an example of how American architects incorporated European architectural traditions into the growing metropolitan landscape of New York City.

The building sits near Madison Square Park and contains office spaces with large windows. These windows provide natural light throughout its multiple stories, creating bright work areas.

The building preserves original construction elements from its era, including detailed stone carvings. These crafted details on its proportional classical columns showcase the skill of the period's builders.
