Constructed between 1836 and 1842 by architect Isaiah Rogers, the building is recognizable by its large columns. It was then remodeled in 1899 by National City Bank; 4 stories, additional Corinthian columns and its central dome were added on. It was reinterpreted again in 1998 as The Regent Wall Street Hotel and served as a relief center in the wake of the September 11 attacks. Since then it has become the popular Cipriani dining destination.
Those who are interested in checking out the terrace can look forward to its opulent accoutrement, outstanding service, delicious Italian offerings and world-famous Bellinis.
