Over a hundred years old and still looks amazing.

I wondered what the David N Dinkins Building was used for, as at street level, you are greeted by Roman columns, which suggest the buildings importance. I thought I would research the building when I got home.The building is 580 feet tall with 40 stories. It was built in the Ancient Roman and Beaux-Arts style and was the first building in New York City to incorporate a subway station below its base; Chambers Street Station. The building also influenced other buildings, such as the Helmsley Building in Midtown Manhatten. The David N Dinkins Municipal Building has around one million square feet of interior space.There are a number of New York City public offices located in the building. These include:New York City Office of Payroll.New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission.New York City Comptroller.New York City Public Advocate.Manhatten Borough President.New York Public Service Commission.New York City Department of Finance.New York City Department of Citywide Administrative Services.The Office of the City Clerk which was responsible weddings. The City Clerks Office relocated to nearby 141 Worth Street in 2009.

Impressive and distinct high rise municipal building displaying a variety of architectural influences and influencing a number of beloved buildings elsewhere in the United States. This striking building is near City Hall Park and the Brooklyn Bridge and is well worth seeing up close.

What an architecturally interesting building! I love the view of it from Brooklyn and as you are crossing the Brooklyn Bridge. The building was designed by the historic McKim, Mead, and White firm in 1914 and was the first to incorporate a subway station inside. The architecture is very unique and has been described as Roman Imperial, French Renaissance, and Italian Renaissance. It served as the inspiration for the Wrigley Building in Chicago. It’s currently home to over 2000 employees.

Beautiful downtown government office, amazing building history, go there to admire the architecture and visit the open public offices. Great views from the different offices.

1 Centre Street is the filming location for at least two scenes from two movies: “The Professional” (South entrance is where corrupt DEA agent Stansfield goes through to reach his office, though the revolving door may have only been used for the film) and “John Wick” (the large arch is in the background across the street from The Red Circle). Largest government building I have ever seen, even though I have not had the pleasure of seeing it in person.

Magnificent Structure with some spectacular views

Its even prettier at night

A very photogenic building in lower Manhattan.

Happy Thanksgiving 20 20 The David N.

Vital place of New York City business

Looks impressiv, also known from movies.

It was a good experience.

Historically the building itself holds the strong arm of the law and justice. The area around including tree filled sitting parks and a stroll across The Brooklyn Bridge makes for a wonderful afternoon or late night walk with the stars.

It looks great from the Brooklyn bridge

The building where Gary Oldman’s character Stansfield worked in Luc Besson’s “Leon” or “The Profesional”. Inside at entrance 1 Centre Street South actually you can see the Gun Detector Checkpoint where Natalie Portman as Matilda tries to get Stansfield.

Fantastic architecture and great view of the city when you at the top of the cupola! I dont know about much that goes on inside the building other than its a government offices, but the security and red tape that goes on when you need to see anyone or do anything is painfully slow.

The view from the roof is beautiful. There is a dedicated elevator to the roof. Thank you Open House New York for this amazing experience.

The David N. Dinkins Municipal Building necessitated seven years to be built and is the most impressive and magnificent building in this part of New York City.

One star for the name

Senior Art Show was graciously hosted here. GALE Brewer mingled and was gracious
