Lefcourt Colonial Building, Art Deco skyscraper in Midtown Manhattan, United States.
The Lefcourt Colonial Building rises 538 feet with 45 floors, featuring blue terra cotta medallions and gilded finials visible across Midtown.
Completed in 1930, the building was auctioned in foreclosure two years later during the Great Depression, marking the fall of Abraham Lefcourt's empire.
The Neo-Gothic architectural design includes decorative terra cotta elements, false balustrades, and layered brickwork that represent 1920s construction methods.
Located at 295 Madison Avenue and East 41st Street, the building provides office spaces with access to multiple transportation options.
The structure shares a distinction with the Empire State Building and Chrysler Building as one of the few New York skyscrapers available as cast replicas.
