 23 Wall Street, New York City
23 Wall Street (see map) is a condominium that was formerly an office building owned by J.P. Morgan & Co. (later the Morgan Guaranty Trust Company). Popularly known as "The Corner", it is located at the southeast corner of Wall Street and Broad Street, in the heart of New York City's Financial District.
23 Wall Street was designed by Trowbridge & Livingston and completed in 1914. For years it was the headquarters of the powerful JP Morgan & Co. bank, earning the name "The House of Morgan" - so much so that marking the façade with the Morgan name seems unnecessary.
23 Wall Street is known for its beautiful architecture and formerly for its well-appointed interior, including a massive crystal chandelier and English oak panelling. It is within a stone's throw from the New York Stock Exchange and Federal Hall.
