14 Wall Street

14 Wall Street

14 Wall Street (originally named the Bankers Trust Company Building) is a skyscraper in Wall Street, New York City, United States which was completed in 1912 by Trowbridge & Livingston. It is 539 ft (164 m) tall and contains 37 floors. It occupies the block along Nassau Street from Wall Street to Pine Street and is directly across from the New York Stock Exchange and Federal Hall.

The 31st floor was once an apartment belonging to J. P. Morgan. The space was converted into an upscale French restaurant called "The 14 Wall Street."

On January 21, 2007, the building's owners, having stalled in their residential conversion plan, agreed to sell the property to Cushman & Wakefield and are reportedly close to a deal to reopen the 31st floor restaurant.
