The Art Deco Red Room in New York's largest office-to-condominium conversion project, One Wall Street, will soon open to the public for the first time since 2001.

The previously hidden banking hall of the Irving Trust Building has been transformed into a retail space by Macklowe Properties.

The Red Room’s history dates back to 1929, when Hildreth Meire was commissioned to design a private reception area for banking clients. And in doing so, she helped introduced New York to the modernism of Art Deco.
