19th Street Condominium
There’s a new building in New York City’s Financial District that’s taking design cues from magnificent buildings of the past. The 11-story structure, located on 19th Street, houses a number of high-end condominiums, and features a granite base and banding of terra cotta at each floor to accent its curtain wall architecture.

- Construction of concrete block partitions in the basement
- Installation of concrete block backup for stonework and terra cotta on the first floor
- Completion Date: 2008
