www.15-parkrow.com/ Height : 391 ft (119m) Floor count : 30 Source : Wikipédia First known as the Ivins Syndicate Building, or just the Syndicate Building, the Park Row Building is located on Park Row in the Financial District of the New York City borough of Manhattan. It is also known simply as 15 Park Row. The architect was Robert Henderson Robertson, a pioneer in steel skyscraper design History : One of the first structures to be called a skyscraper, the building was completed in 1899 after three years of construction. The builder was William Mills Ivins, a prominent lawyer and former judge advocate general for New York State. He headed a syndicate of investors, which most likely gave root to the building's original name. At 391 ft (119.2m) tall, it was the tallest office building in the world from 1899 until 1908, when it was surpassed by the Singer Building. In 1901, an announced building project by Aetna, to be located at 33rd Street and Broadway, would have overtaken Park Row as the tallest office building at 455 feet (139 m) high, but it was never built. The building is 29 stories tall, with 26 full floors and two, three-story cupolas. It has a frontage of 103 ft (31 m) on Park Row, 23 on Ann Street and 48 feet (15 m) on Theater Alley. The base of the building covers a land area of approximately 15,000 square feet (1,400 m2). The building contains about 8,000 tons of steel and 12,000 tons of other material, chiefly brick and terra cotta.The foundation of the Park Row Building was made of 3,900 Georgia spruce piles driven into wet sand and topped by granite blocks. The total cost to build this early skyscraper was $2,400,000. The building offered 950 separate offices, each with a capacity of about 4 people. A rough estimate of 25,000 people were thought to have passed through the building each workday. Upon completion, approximately 4,000 people a day worked there] By mid-1899, the building was owned by the investment banker and subway sponsor August Belmont, Jr. under the name Park Row Realty Company. The first headquarters of the Interborough Rapid Transit (IRT) subway were located in the building. On May 3, 1920 the defenestration of Andrea Salsedo occurred from the 14th floor of 15 Park Row at 4:20 am. He was being held with Roberto Elia by the Justice Department in connection with a series of bombings that had occurred in New York, Boston, Washington, Philadelphia, Paterson, Cleveland and Pittsburgh. A leaflet entitled "Plain Words," signed by the "Anarchist Fighters," was found at the sites, and because of an aberrant "S" in the printing, the authorities tracked down the print shop where both Salsedo and Elia worked. They were held at 15 Park Row for 8 weeks with limited external communication. The night of May 3, Salsedo fell from the 14th floor: the anarchists claim he was thrown, the police claim he jumped. Le Park Row Building ou 15 Park Row Building est un gratte-ciel de New York, situé dans le Financial District de Manhattan. Avec une hauteur de 119 mètres, il fut le plus haut gratte-ciel du monde entre son inauguration en 1899 et 1908 où il fut dépassé par le Singer Building. En 1901, un projet de building annoncé par Aetna était censé le dépasser, mais sa construction n'eut finalement pas lieu. Le Park Row Building comporte 29 étages, 26 étant situés dans le cœur du gratte-ciel, et les trois autres se répartissant sur les deux coupoles situées au sommet du building. Le bâtiment se présente en fait sous la forme d'un grand rectangle, séparé en six sections horizontales, sur lequel deux coupoles sont venues se greffer, et en raison de cette architecture caractéristique, le gratte-ciel demeure l'un des bâtiments symboliques du sud de Manhattan. Cependant, lors de sa construction, le gratte-ciel reçut des critiques plutôt négatives, pour les critiques, les coupoles étaient des « ajouts insignifiants qui n'ajoutaient finalement rien », alors que les façades étaient perçues comme « absolument inexpressives et insipides ». Le Park Row Building fait partie des quelques immeubles encore debout d'une rue qui était autrefois baptisée Newspaper Row (« allée des journaux ») en raison de la multiplication des éditeurs de journaux dans cette zone entre les années 1840 et 1920. Ainsi, en 1900, le gratte-ciel abritait l'agence de presse Associated Press.
