The American Express Building at 65 Broadway in between Morris and Rector Streets in the Financial District of Manhattan, New York City was built in 1914-1917 and was designed by James L. Aspinwall of the firm of Renwick, Aspinwall & Tucker in the Neoclassical style. The 21-story building goes through to Trinity Place, and was the headquarters of American Express until 1975.[1] The building is now sometimes called the Standard & Poors Building, but should not be confused with another building using that name at 25 Broadway.
The New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission designated the concrete and steel-frame building a New York City landmark in December 1995.[2]
