History

[edit]

90 Church Street was designed byCross & Cross, Pennington, Lewis & Mills andLouis A. Simon, who wasSupervising Architect of the Department of the Treasury at the time. The architectural style of the building is a mixture ofNeo-classicism andArt Deco. It has two towers and the facade is clad inlimestone. TheAIA Guide to New York City described the building as "a boring limestone monolith that has trouble deciding between a heritage of stripped down neo-Classical and a new breath of Art Deco."^[2]

The construction of the building started in 1934 and was completed in 1937. There was a six stories addition on top in 1938.^[3]

It was added to theNational Register of Historic Places in 1989.^[4]^[5] The building was extensively renovated byBoston Properties, Inc from the early 1990s though 2000 by ArchitectsSwanke Hayden Connell Architects andBrannen Associates.^[6]

In addition to housing the Postal Service, the 90 Church Street building contains offices of the New York State Public Service Commission, the New York State Health Department, and theNew York City Housing Authority.^[5]

September 11 attacks

[edit]

The building suffered moderate damage during theSeptember 11 attacks due to a remnant of one of the planes and other debris landing on top of the building. Following the collapse of theWorld Trade Center's twin towers, the building'sfacade was damaged, windows were broken, the roof was seriously burned and majorwater damage occurred throughout the internal structure. It was also extensivelycontaminated withasbestos,lead dust,fungi,fiberglass dust,mercury, andbacteria.^[5] The building was entirely engulfed by dust after the collapse of both buildings, respectively, and was further damaged whenBuilding 7 collapsed later the same day. There was no major structural damage.^[7] Duringrecovery efforts atGround Zero, the United States Postal Service worked to return individual pieces of mail found by rescue workers to the addressees.^[8] In August 2004, the Church Street Station Post Office reopened, and mail was once again being processed there.^[9] Church Street Station also serves the 10007 ZIP code, covering portions ofBattery Park City,Tribeca, andCivic Center.
