City Bank-Farmers Trust Company Building, New York is a 59 floor Art Deco building in New York City. Built between 1930-1931, for the newly merged National City Bank and Farmers' Loan and Trust Company, a predecessor firm of Citibank.
The building was designed by the architectural firm of Cross and Cross. Originally designed in 1929 to be the world's tallest building, at 864.4 feet, with a pyramidal top, Depression era realities resulted in a scaled back, 741 foot tall building, New York City's fourth tallest building at the time.
