Designed by Cass Gilbert and completed in 1913, the Woolworth Building at 233 Broadway was the tallest building in the world until 1930. Nicknamed the 'Cathedral of Commerce,' it is a National Historic Landmark celebrated for its neo-Gothic terracotta facade and richly ornamented lobby. The building originally served as the corporate headquarters for the F. W. Woolworth Company and remains an iconic example of early 20th-century skyscraper design.
