skyscraper located in New York City. Originally known as the Bank
of Manhattan Trust building and also known as Manhattan
Company Building. The building, was completed in 1930 after only
11 months of construction. The architects of 40 Wall Street changed
their originally announced height of 840 feet or 68 stories, to 927
feet or 71 stories, making their building, upon completion in May
1930, the tallest in the world. However, this triumph turned out to
be exceptionally short-lived to be broken by the Empire State
Building completed in 1931. On May 20, 1946, a United States Army
Air Forces C-45 Beechcraft airplane crashed into the north side of
the building. 40 Wall Street was bought by Donald Trump and later
renamed The Trump Building. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
