Built in 1909, and designed by Henry Ives Cobb, Liberty Tower is one of the early romantic skyscrapers. It is a 33 story Gothic Revival landmark building. In 1980, the conversion of Liberty Tower introduced residential use to the Financial District. Joseph Pell Lombardi, as both architect and investor, designed the interiors, restored the historic elements, and converted the building to 89 residential units. There is a live-in superintendent, 24-hr doormen and porters.
