240 Greenwich Street, also known as 101 Barclay Street, is an office building in Lower Manhattan, New York City. It is located on the coast of Battery Park City and the Hudson River, next to 7 World Trade Center and the Barclay–Vesey Building, and behind 200 West Street. It can be identified by its distinct stairstep roof shape. It serves as the headquarters of the financial services company BNY Mellon, which owns the building.

Background

Following the September 11 attacks in 2001, the building suffered moderate damage.[1]

In October 2018, BNY Mellon acquired 240 Greenwich Street for $352 million and subsequently moved its headquarters from Brookfield Place into the building.[2][3][4]
