Seventh Regiment Armory
-
The socially prominent members of the Seventh Regiment, formed in 1806, had the wherewithal to construct a remarkable armory in 1877–89, with a drill room 200 by 300 feet (60 by 90 m) and 100 feet (30 m) high, and an administration building in the form of a medieval fortress. Interior decoration was by Louis Comfort Tiffany, Stanford White, and others, and the result is opulent rooms with lavish Victorian furnishings. The drill room is used for the prestigious Winter Antiques Show every January, as well as for many society charity balls.
