10 West 56th Street, Renaissance Revival landmark in Midtown Manhattan, US
The six-story limestone commercial building features French Renaissance Revival architecture with decorative elements and a marble central staircase on 56th Street.
Warren and Wetmore designed this structure in 1901 as a private residence for stockbroker Frederick Edey on what became known as Bankers' Row.
The building transformed from an elite private residence to commercial spaces, reflecting the evolution of Manhattan's urban landscape through the 20th century.
Located between Fifth and Sixth Avenues, the building contains 16,446 square feet across six floors above ground and two basement levels.
Carlos Slim acquired this property in 2011, while Elizabeth Taylor previously resided here during the 1950s before its conversion to commercial use.
