Excerpt from The Cathedral of Commerce: The Highest Building in the World Its location, too, is of supreme importance. It IS in the very heart of things - the civic center of the world's great metropolis, ln the midst of all transpor tation lines. It faces upon three streets and has nine entrances, including two, direct communications with the subway system. It is within a stone's throw of City Hall, the Municipal Building, Brooklyn Bridge, the Post Office and Courts, as well as close by the great financial and banking center. No building could command a better location or one more advantageous to its tenants. From the Observation Gallery, fifty-eight stories above the street, the View is marvelous, and the thrilling sensation which comes over the sight seer is never to be forgotten. It is indeed the most remarkable if not the most wonderful view in all the world. The scenic and color effects, with the sun shining on the multi-colored buildings around it, but far below, and on the water and land for twenty-five miles in every direction, make a landscape impossible of adequate description. The vast area spread out before the visitor's eye is inhabited by more than souls. To the north lies the great City, with the Hudson River and the lordl'y Highlands beyond. To the east are Long Island and the mighty Atlantic Ocean, with its ships passing to and fro far distant on the horizon where sky and water seem to meet. To the south are the great Harbor of New York, the Narrows through which pass all ships entering and leaving the Port of New York, Governor's Island, the Statue of Liberty, and Staten Island in the distance. To the west again is seen the Hudson River and the great expanses of meadow-land and mountainous country embracing Eastern New Jersey. Looking downward, the multitudes of people scurrying about the busy streets in close proximity to the Woolworth Building resemble an aggregation of pygmies - a crowd seen through the large end of a telescope. The View is bewildering. Every year upwards of visitors from all parts of the world comehere and the Register shows that these good people represent more than sixty different countries and thousands of cities.
