Union
Terminal
, and

of
limestone
, the

Built
by the

brothers
it
is
98
feet
square
to the
37th

,
where
it
assumes
a
polygonal
form
with
buttresses
as
far
as the
39th
floor
; there, with a
series
of
encircling
turrets
,
it
becomes
cylindrical
before
culminating
in a
cone
surmounted
with a
flagpole
. At
night
,
floodlights
illuminate
the
tower
above
the
34th
floor
.
It
was
added
to the
National
Register
of
Historic
Places
in
1976
. The
tower
is
one
of a
number
of
interconnected
