About 130 West 30th Street
The building at 130 West 30th Street, which goes by The Cass Gilbert, stands on 30th Street in Midtown Manhattan, between Sixth Avenue (the Avenue of the Americas) and Seventh Avenue. Cass Gilbert designed the 18-story building in the Assyrian Revival style for the Garment District, with offices, showrooms and manufacturing space. It was finished in 1928 and holds New York City landmark designation. Among Gilbert's earlier works are the Woolworth Building and Alexander Hamilton U.S. Custom House.
Brick covers most of the facade, broken up by terracotta friezes and bands. The design draws on Middle Eastern architecture, including ziggurats, and the tower steps back above floors 10, 14 and 17. Each setback is marked by a two-colored terracotta frieze, and the 1916 Zoning Resolution required the setbacks. Atlantic Terra Cotta made the terracotta. Only two other New York City buildings share its Assyrian theme, the Graybar Building and the Fred F. French Building, and there it is limited to the roofs.
The building was first called the S.J.M Building, after the fur trader Salomon J. Manne. Conversion to residential condominiums in 2003 brought the new name, The Cass Gilbert, after its architect. The floors above hold 45 condominiums, and the synagogue of Congregation Beit Simchat Torah occupies the bottom three stories; the congregation moved in during 2016.
