17 State Street is a 42-story building in the Financial District, Manhattan
. Completed in 1988, the building rises to 542 ft (165 m). The bottom floors of the skyscraper are home to New York Unearthed, an urban archaeology museum with approximately two million artifacts from local excavation sites. The museum was originally included as a concession to the New York Landmarks Preservation Commission, who had been unable to perform an archaeological survey of the site before construction began. They believed that the lot had contained artifacts from the early 18th century, although a lawyer for the construction firm claimed to be "absolutely certain that no archeological material was lost"... from 17 State Street

Interestingly, the Seaman's Church Institute had built their headquarters (a 23 storey building) on that site less than 20 years before.

I'm solidary to your campaing against degradation of New York, with zones turned trash by real estate speculation. It happens all over the world. I ask you to persist and call together all people to destroy this 21th century barbarism. From Brasil (not Brazil, please), I'll do what is possible to me, at the age of 73.
Peter: 14th Sep 2009 - 23:35 GMT
and how do you propose we destroy this barbarism, antônio from brasil?

For the record this was the building that stood beforehand...
Nice but no big loss really...
Franny Wentzel: 15th Sep 2009 - 01:05 GMT
Their previous HQ was a couple blocks away where New York Plaza now stands...
On top was a memorial to the Titanic disaster. When that building was demoloished the memorial was preserved...
Stands in the South Street Seaport now...

Peter,, if I knew, I would already done it. I hope you propose something, but the solution will appear only when everybody get conscious that a city is a place to live, not to some people get profit.
