NYFE Summary
The Salvation Army developed this headquarters as its American social-service work expanded. The complex brought offices and a large auditorium together. Its dedication formed part of a celebration of fifty years of the organization’s mission work in the United States.
Brick piers emphasize the height of the office tower. Beside it, a deep arched entrance leads toward the auditorium, with stepped edges that resemble a stage opening. The building uses changes in surface and depth rather than dense applied decoration.
