Best Woolworth Building Tours in June

Designed by famous architect Cass Gilbert, the Woolworth Building was the tallest building in the world from its completion date of 1913 to 1930. The 792-foot tall, 60-story skyscraper in Lower Manhattan was commissioned by Frank Woolworth to serve as his company's headquarters as well as contain offices for other businesses. When the Woolworth Building opened, then-United States President Woodrow Wilson pressed a button from his residence in Washington, D.C. to switch the lights on in the now U.S. National Historic Landmark.
