56 Pine Street, originally the Wallace Building after its developer James Wallace, is an office building at 56–58 Pine Street between Pearl and William Streets in Manhattan's Financial District. Designed by Oscar Wirz in the Romanesque Revival style and built in 1893–94, its brick, stone and terra cotta facade features colonnettes, deeply inset windows and rounded arched openings, along with flowered panels and fantastic heads described as some of the finest Byzantine carving in New York. It was designated a New York City landmark in 1997, listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2003, and is a contributing property to the Wall Street Historic District.
