Bulova Corporate Center Building

 business centre/building  Add category

This monumental building was designed by Alexander Crossett and Associates. Most of his other buildings in the city were small utilitarian industrial buildings. Aymar Embury, II who was Robert Moses’ chief architect and designer of many of the Depression-era pool and recreational complexes served as consulting architect which could explain the strong 1930s classical evocation inspired by the Federal Reserve Bank in Washington, DC.

The building is sprawling over two floors and contains 400,000 square feet of space. Indiana limestone was used on the exterior and the interior floors were travertine. The interiors were done by F. V. Gerstel with several Art Deco style murals. The headquarters included both administrative as well as manufacturing space. In the 1980s Bulova sold the entire complex and it was renovated for a range of tenants. It is now managed by Blumenfeld Development Group.
