Summary[edit]

Description

1 Broadway is an office building located on Broadway, formerly known as "United States Lines-Panama Pacific Lines Building" in New York City. The spot is more famous for its previous use: In the late 18th century it was the Kennedy House, built for Archibald Kennedy, who resided in it until he succeeded as Earl of Cassilis. During the American Revolution it served briefly as headquarters for Generals George Washington and Henry "Lighthorse Harry" Lee. The structure survived as the Washington Hotel. In 1884, Edward H. Kendall designed the "Washington Building", an ornate commercial building.

The building was bought by the International Mercantile Marine Company (later known as the United States Lines) in 1920 or 1921, then extensively refaced and remodelled on a maritime theme in 1921 from plans by Walter B. Chambers).

Currently, the only tenants are a Citibank branch on the ground floor, and Kenyon & Kenyon, a prominent intellectual property law firm, the sole tenant on the upper floors.
