Trinity Building and United States Realty Building
(NYLPC Landmark)

 

111 and 115 BroadwayStatus: Inspected but not affected.*

Trinity and U.S. Realty Buildings (offices), 111 and 115 Broadway, straddling Thames St. W. side. 1904-1907. Both by Francis H. Kimball. Renovated 1988-1989. Swanke Hayden Connell.

These are richly detailed buildings with "broken Gothic forms."

Both buildings "were designed with Gothic detail to harmonize with neighboring Trinity Church."

"The construction of these enormous slabs was a major undertaking, entailing the relocation of Thames Street and the construction of caissons 80 feet into the marshy subsoil. The limestone-faced buildings are carefully detailed with towers, gables, and fanciful carved ornament."
