Woolworth Building Tours - 2 Tickets
Item Number: 213
Time Left: CLOSED
Description
Pair of tickets to a 60-minute tour of the magnificent Woolworth Building Lobby at 233 Broadway, NYC.
When the Woolworth Building was completed in 1913, it achieved instant renown as the highest skyscraper in the world. Cass Gilbert’s design was hailed by critics for the picturesqueness of its Gothic silhouette in skyline views.
At the building’s base, a Tudor Gothic portal opened on axis to a monumental lobby recalling a Romanesque cathedral nave. Vaults surfaced with Byzantine mosaics, cornices of gilded tracery, and the lunette murals.
The Woolworth Building was named a National Historic Landmark in 1966 and in 1983, a New York City Landmark.
