60 Wall Street

60 Wall Street is a 47-story, 745-foot-tall skyscraper on Wall Street in the Financial District of Lower Manhattan, New York City. The tower was designed by Kevin Roche, John Dinkeloo & Associates to fit its surroundings with a postmodern, Greek revival, and neoclassical look to emphasize both height and size.

The site that is now 60 Wall Street was assembled from sites containing several buildings. After purchasing the site, the Bank of New York planned a $450 million, 1.6-million-square-foot office tower on the site, which was canceled. In September 1983, the bank sold the site to developer Park Tower Realty Company with plans for a 1.7-million-square-foot , 60-story office tower. In September 1985, J.P. Morgan & Co. announced that they would purchase and fully occupy the proposed tower, and the project was finished in 1989. Since 2001, the building has served as the American headquarters of Deutsche Bank, which plans to leave the building for the Time Warner Center in 2021.
