The 391-foot skyscraper, designed by architect R.H. Robertson, featured twin three-story domed cupolas adorned by classical female figures representing commerce. The St. Paul Building (right) opened a year before the Park Row Building, rising to a height of 315 feet. Designed by Stock Exchange architect George B. Post, the ornamented tower was demolished in 1958 to make way for the modern 222 Broadway.
