Gallatin Bank Building, Historical bank building in Financial District, Manhattan, US
The Gallatin Bank Building features limestone and sandstone construction with Italian Renaissance design elements across its six stories at 40 Wall Street.
Constructed in 1887 by architectural firm Cady, Berg & See, the structure was demolished in 1929 to make way for the Manhattan Company headquarters.
The building represented the transformation of the Manhattan Company from a water supply enterprise into a financial institution that shaped New York banking.
The structure served as headquarters for multiple banking operations before its demolition, marking the evolution of financial services in Lower Manhattan.
The site later hosted a 927-foot skyscraper that briefly held the title of world's tallest building in November 1929.
