What an architecturally interesting building! I love the view of it from Brooklyn and as you are crossing the Brooklyn Bridge. The building was designed by the historic McKim, Mead, and White firm in 1914 and was the first to incorporate a subway station inside. The architecture is very unique and has been described as Roman Imperial, French Renaissance, and Italian Renaissance. It served as the inspiration for the Wrigley Building in Chicago. It’s currently home to over 2000 employees.

Impressive and distinct high rise municipal building displaying a variety of architectural influences and influencing a number of beloved buildings elsewhere in the United States. This striking building is near City Hall Park and the Brooklyn Bridge and is well worth seeing up close.

Beautiful grand building right to Brooklyn bridge. The building looks more mystery because it is government buildings with police and the big metal car blocker. I still can walk around and take pictures and this spot is popular for wedding pictures also.

I wondered what the David N Dinkins Building was used for, as at street level, you are greeted by Roman columns, which suggest the buildings importance. I thought I would research the building when I got home.

The building is 580 feet tall with 40 stories. It was built in the Ancient Roman and Beaux-Arts style and was the first building in New York City to incorporate a subway station below its base; Chambers Street Station. The building also influenced other buildings, such as the Helmsley Building in Midtown Manhatten. The David N Dinkins Municipal Building has around one million square feet of interior space.

There are a number of New York City public offices located in the building. These include:

New York City Office of Payroll. New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission. New York City Comptroller. New York City Public Advocate. Manhatten Borough President. New York Public Service Commission. New York City Department of Finance. New York City Department of Citywide Administrative Services.

The Office of the City Clerk which was responsible wedding's. The City Clerk's Office relocated to nearby 141 Worth...

The David N. Dinkins Manhattan Municipal Building located at 1 Centre Street in Loer Manhattan is a awesome Building.

Tall, grand, imposing, large by any building standards, and the tenants have some of the best NYC views.

Saturated at the foot of the Brooklyn Bridge, and directly across from New York’s City Hall. It is up the street from the Civil Center, where all the courthouses of New York City and State sits.

The pinnacle of New York City’s power is here and all around it.
