375 Pearl Street

375 Pearl Street is a 1975 -built high-rise in Manhattan, New York, near the Brooklyn Bridge. It is 165 meters high and extends over 32 floors.

The building is also known as the Verizon Building and is therefore not to be confused with the New York Telephone Building, which also bears this epithet.

The solid-looking concrete block, which is inevitably on many recordings of the Brooklyn Bridge mitabgebildet, is considered eyesore in Lower Manhattan. In December 2007, the telecommunications company Verizon sold the building to Taconic Investment Partners and moved to New York Telephone Building. Verizon itself has only two floors today. As in the skyscraper originally only technical premises were housed, it has only narrow vertical bands of windows. The plans of Taconic therefore provide completely rebuild the building and provided with a curtain wall.
