Description

View of City Investing Building and surrounding buildings with Singer Building tower in background. The City Investing Building stood at 56 Cortland Street, between Broadway and Church Street, and was constructed between 1906 and 1908. With a single 33 story tower, a main body mass extended to 26 stories, and an asymmetrical F-shaped footprint because of a real estate holdout, the Gilsey Building. Along with the neighboring Singer Building, the Hudson Terminal, and the Equitable Building, the City Investing Building stood as one of the most frequently photographed downtown skyscrapers. The Equitable Building threw the City Investing Building into permanent shadow up to the 24th floor, a situation which led to New York City's 1916 Zoning Resolution requiring building setbacks. The building was razed in 1968, along with the nearby Singer Building, to make room for One Liberty Plaza. Photogrphed by Irving Underhill, 1909
