The Seventh Regiment Armory, sometimes called the Park Avenue Armory, is a historic brick building designed by architect Charles W. Clinton of the firm of Clinton & Russell in the Gothic Revival style and dedicated in 1880. It originally served as the headquarters and administrative building for the New York State Militia's Seventh Regiment, known as the Silk Stocking Regiment because of its numerous socially elite members. Currently the building houses the 53rd Army Liaison Team of the New York Army National Guard, and offers space for cultural, social and business events.

The building is known for detailed interior rooms that are furnished with ornamental woodwork, marble and stained glass.
