What's the vibe
Steeped in a history of both grandeur and graft, the Italianate architecture and Romanesque Revival interiors evoke a sense of civic gravitas. It feels like stepping into a meticulously restored piece of New York's past, "blending historic details with an airy" feel.ambiance

About
This Italianate landmark is the enduring legacy of infamous Tammany Hall leader William "Boss" Tweed, who notoriously embezzled vast sums during its construction. Irony struck when Tweed himself was tried and convicted within its unfinished walls.story
