Liberty Tower, Gothic Revival skyscraper in Financial District, Manhattan, US.
Liberty Tower rises 117.4 meters with 33 floors, featuring limestone and terracotta exterior adorned with detailed architectural ornamentation at 55 Liberty Street.
Built between 1909 and 1910, the structure initially housed commercial offices, including Franklin Delano Roosevelt's law practice before Sinclair Oil Company acquired it.
The 1979 transformation from offices to 86 residential apartments marked a significant shift in the Financial District's architectural development patterns.
Five elevators service the residential units within this National Register of Historic Places building, which occupies 5,198 square feet of ground space.
The entrance features bronze and glass doors beneath a Tudor arch, leading to interior spaces that once displayed seasonal theme murals.
