World Diamond Tower - NY

Located in the heart of Midtown Manhattan, the World Diamond Tower is at 580 Fifth Avenue, NY, NY.

Two years before the start of the Great Depression, famed architects of their era, Warren & Wetmore, were commissioned to design a 33-story Art Deco building, to be known as the Empire Trust Building. Despite being in the third decade of their partnership, Warren & Wetmore were in for a challenge when owner/builder Max Kramer called them in on the 580 project. A brand new 12-story structure already existed in the location of 1-11 West 47th Street, starting only 100 feet down 47th Street running west from the 5th Avenue corner.
