Description
The New York Life Insurance Company building was designed in 1928 by Cass Gilbert (who did the Woolworth Building). Inside hang enormous lamps, bronze doors and a grand staircase.

The original Madison Square Garden stood here. Its next incarnation, designed by Stanford White, also occupied this place where the architect was shot dead by millionaire Harry Shaw.
