The Woolworth Tower Residences are 32 loft-like condominiums that encompass floors 29 to 58 of the landmarked Woolworth Building, originally designed by Cass Gilbert in 1913 as a commission from retail magnate F.W. Woolworth.

The residences feature finishes designed by Thierry Despont, who is known for his work on the restoration of the Statue of Liberty and makeover of the Ritz Paris Hotel and Carlyle Hotel.
