The Building:
As the former headquarters of the Sinclair Oil and Refining Corporation, Liberty Tower (circa 1909) was once the tallest tower, until the Woolworth building (circa 1913). Converted by renowned architect Joseph Pell Lombardi in 1980, this was one of the first co-ops in Manhattan's world famous Financial District neighborhood. The 380 foot high building was designed in modified Gothic style, adorned with carved stone eagles perched thereon.
