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.

The Financial District occupies the southern tip of Manhattan, where landmark office towers have been converted into spacious residential lofts alongside new luxury high-rise condominiums with river and harbor views. The Oculus and Fulton Center transit hubs connect over a dozen subway lines, including the 2, 3, 4, 5, A, C, J, and Z trains, making it one of the best-connected neighborhoods in the city. Battery Park, Bowling Green, and the 9/11 Memorial provide open green space and waterfront access at the foot of the skyline.
