- Pershing_Square_Building abstract "The Pershing Square Building is a 24-story office tower built in 1923, located at the intersection of Park Avenue and 42nd Street in New York City. The building's addresses are listed as both 100 East 42nd Street and also 125 Park Avenue, and it occupies a position directly across the street from Grand Central Terminal.The architect of this Romanesque Revival structure was John Sloan of the firm York and Sawyer, and Henry Mandel was the developer. It was erected on the site of the former Grand Union Hotel, and takes its name from the former public open space which was located below 42nd Street on Park Avenue, memorializing World War I general John J. Pershing. It rises from a square 7-storey base with 3-storey high decorative arches and continues in a u-shaped configuration to the top floor. The building is clad in beige brick and noted for the elaborate decoration designed by Sloan and produced by the Atlantic Terra Cotta Company. One of the figures at the fifth-floor level represents a Roman caduceator, or peace commissioner. He holds a caduceus in one hand as an emblem of office and, in the other, a cornucopia to suggest the benefits of a prospective peace.Current owner SL Green purchased the building in 2010 from The Shorenstein Company.".
