A Little Art Deco Razzle-Dazzle to Brighten Your Day

100 Barclay by TCAs you no doubt know, the top 21 floors of the Verizon Building at 140 West are being converted to condos—and being renamed 100 Barclay. Designed by the architect Ralph Walker, the building is handsome, as anyone can tell just by looking at it. But what you may not know is that the lobby is an Art Deco dazzler. Scotty Elyanow, a broker downtown at Town Residential, posted some photos on Instagram.

UPDATE: N says the building to the right is Goldman Sachs’s headquarters.

  1. Beautiful! Thanks for sharing!

  2. That last rendering is from the vantage point of 1WTC. The blackish building on the top left is the Goldman Building (the view is north and west, while 1WTC is south of the Verizon building)
