The New York World Building was a skyscraper in New York City designed by early skyscraper specialist George Browne Post. Construction began October 10, 1889, at 53-63 Park Row, on the corner of Park Row and the now-closed Frankfort Street. The building was completed December 10, 1890 and claimed a height of 20 stories, comparable to 16 or 18 stories by current standards. The New York World Building was also known as the Pulitzer Building after the paper's owner, Joseph Pulitzer, who commissioned it. Pulitzer's private office was on the second level of the dome and looked down on other buildings along the street. The World Building was demolished in 1955 for the expanded car ramp entrance to the Brooklyn Bridge. No photographer credited, 1909.
