60 Wall Street
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
60 Wall Street is a 55 story skyscraper (745 feet, 227 meters) in Lower Manhattan. Built between 1987 and 1989 as the headquarters for J.P. Morgan & Co. (now absorbed into JPMorgan Chase), the tower has over 1.7 million square feet (160,000 m²) of office space and was the last large corporate building to be built in the Financial District.
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 building was obtained by Deutsche Bank in 2001 for $600 million, but relocated 4,500 more of its personnel there only after being unable to find buyers following the post 9/11 downturn.[citation needed]
