Artist's Description
New York Herald Building at Broadway and 6th Avenue between 35th and 36th Streets was built by the architectural firm of McKim, Mead & White in 1893. Stanford White based his design on the 1476 Venetian Renaissance Palazzo del Consiglio in Verona. Completed in 1895, its one criticism was that it was "too perfect" a copy. Along the roofline, publisher James Gordon Bennett, Jr. had 26 four-foot bronze owls installed. The birds at the corners, with spread wings, were given green glass eyes that glowed on and off with the toll of the Herald's clock. he owls were intended to symbolize the wisdom of the newspaper's printed words. A deep and graceful arcade along the sides offered passersby the opportunity to watch the giant presses in motion inside. While the area still carries the name Herald Square after the newspaper and its building, the Herald Building was demolished in two stages one in 1928, the other in 1940. Photographed by J.S. Johnston, 1895.
