About Gotham Hall
1356 Broadway, New York
Located in a landmark building that once housed Greenwich Savings Bank, Gotham Hall is an iconic Midtown event space. Constructed in 1922-24 as The Greenwich Savings Bank building, Gotham Hall is one of the refined examples in the impressive corpus of bank buildings from the firm of York and Sawyer, both architects, initially employed by McKim, Mead, & White.
