In 1969, Emery Roth & Sons designed this 22-story structure at 10 Hanover Square in the Financial District as an office building and subsequently it was used as offices by Goldman Sachs.

It was acquired by The Witkoff Group and converted to 493 rental apartments in 2005.

The building has a 24-hour doorman, concierge and valet services, a fitness center, a rock climbing wall, a spinning room, a residents lounge with a fireplace and billiard table, a business center and catering kitchen, a sundeck, personal storage on floors, bicycle storage, and is pet-friendly.

BG Studio International and Schuman Lichtenstein Claman & Efron were the architects for the conversion.

The building is also known as 110 Pearl Street and 76 Water Street.

It has an 8-step-up entrance.

According to the New York City Parks Department, "the land in and around this park has been used continuously since at least 1637 when it was part of a public street and fronted directly on the East River."

"By 1730 this area was known as Hanover Square in tribute to the House of Hanover which had acceded to the English throne in the person of George I in 1714. For much of the 18th century, Hanover Square was the center of New York's printing trade and retail business. Local shops sold imported books, clothing, glassware, hardware, and furniture, as well as wine, tobacco, and tea. The Bank of New York moved its headquarters to the square in 1787.

"In 1794 the Common Council changed the names of several city streets to reflect the young republic's independence. Hanover Square and Hanover Street were to be incorporated into Pearl Street, but the changes were never enforced, and the names remained intact. An article in an 1815 issue of the Columbian reported that heavy demolition and construction in Hanover Square....That year the site of this park was acquired by the City of New York for street purposes.

"The Great Fire of 1835 destroyed almost all of the buildings in the area. In time, the area was rebuilt as a commercial and financial center, which it remains to this day. The landmarked India House building (originally the Hanover Bank) is the only surviving example of the many Italianate banks erected in the financial district in the 1850s. Other historic buildings around Hanover Square include 1 Williams Street and 1 Wall Street Court, both built in the first decade of the 20th century. Numbers 3, 5, 7, 10, and 11 Hanover Square are examples of more recent downtown development.

"The small triangular parcel known as Hanover Square Park did not receive park jurisdiction until 1952, when it was developed as a sitting area. In the late 1970s the park was thoroughly reconstructed and replanted as part of an overall redevelopment of nearby private commercial properties. The improvements provided new benches, paving, curbs, and hedges and small trees in planters.

"In addition to recognizing the completed renovations, the 1979 rededication of the park also celebrated the installation of the over life-size portrait statue of Abraham De Peyster. Born in New Amsterdam, De Peyster (1657-1728) was one of the city's wealthiest merchants. He held almost all of the important offices in the city and colony, including alderman, mayor, member of the king's council, and acting governor. His descendant John Watts De Peyster commissioned sculptor George Edwin Bissell to design the monument, which was dedicated in Bowling Green in 1896. The bronze statue was removed from its original location in 1972 and moved to a new pedestal in Hanover Square Park four years later. In 1999 the sculpture was restored by the City Parks Foundation Monuments Conservation Program. From his lofty perch, the lustrous and illustrious Dutchman surveys the hustle of the Financial District.

"The Abraham De Peyster sculpture has been removed from the park to accommodate the redesign of Hanover Square as the British Memorial Garden. It has been temporarily placed in storage until a new location has been determined for its reinstallation."

The British Memorial Garden was created to commemorate the lives of 67 Britons who died in New York on September 11, 2001. The new park space features hand-carved stone from Scotland, plantings from Prince Charles's estate, and iron bollards from London. The garden was completed in June, 2008.

The website for the garden has a history of the square written by F. J. Sypher and it provides the following commentary:

"During the Dutch period, New Amsterdam had its center at the southern end of Manhattan, near the main docks. The East River washed the shore at present-day Pearl Street (formerly Great Dock Street). Typical of the early structures in what is now Hanover Square was the house built in the mid-17th century by Burger Jorissen, on the west side of the square, at the corner of present-day William Street. Around the house were trees, gardens, and outbuildings, including, on the William Street side, a stillhouse, and a smithy. In front the windows looked out over a broad quay, dotted with trees, with the East River beyond. It must have seemed like a house on one of the canals of old Amsterdam.

"In 1664 the city came under British rule, and was named New York in honor of its proprietor, the Duke of York, later King James II. A few years later, in 1668, Burger Jorissen's house was purchased as a residence by Thomas Lewis, a shipping merchant and alderman of the city. As New York grew toward the north and east, the city council surveyed the area (1691). By means of landfill, streets were extended, and even the waterfront moved one block east, to appropriately-named Water Street, opened 18 January 1694. The east side of the square then became available for building.

"In 1695, just after the death of Queen Mary II, the name "Great Dock Street" was changed to Queen Street. In the same year Abraham De Peyster, a merchant and prominent city officials, built a large house in Queen Street. In bewigged finery he is vividly memorialized in the statue (1896 by George E. Bissell) that stands (or rather sits) now in Hanover Square. A resident on the west side of the square at about the same time was William Kidd, who assisted with the construction of the first Trinity Church; he is more widely remembered as 'Captain Kidd.'

"The broad quay was now a city 'square' (actually a triangle), with houses on three sides, and also in the lower part of the area in the middle (where the De Peyster statue is today). In 1714, in honor of the accession of George I, King of Great Britain and Ireland, and Elector of Hanover, the square was named Hanover Square.

"The city docks and their related commercial activity were by this time spreading northward as New York grew. As of 1712 the population of New York County was 5,840; by 1746 it had about doubled. In 1761, Gov. Calwallader Colden estimated that there were about 2,000 houses in the city.

"As buildings downtown were converted to commercial use, people moved their residences further north. The house that had formerly been Thomas Lewis' residence was later taken over by the printer William Bradford as a combined residence and printing-shop. There in 1725 he became publication of New York's first newspaper, the New-York Gazette. In 1757, Hugh Gaine, bookseller and publisher, moved his headquarters to Hanover Square, which had become known as New York's 'printing house square,' an equivalent of the London square named after the King's Printing House (1667).

"From Hanover Square, Queen Street led north toward an attractive residential neighborhood. At No. 156 Queen Street in 1752, William Walton, a prosperous merchant, built his spacious Georgian-style house, regarded at the time as the handsomest resident in the city. The location (site of the present-day 326-328 Pearl Street), was conveniently near his business office at Hanover Square.

"At about this time also, near the northern end of Queen Street, and not far form Walton's house, the Parish of Trinity Church built its first chapel of ease, St. George's Chapel, to accommodate a growing Anglican congregation, including families who lived at a distance from the mother church on Broadway at Wall Street. Robert Crommelin, an architect and member of the Trinity vestry, designed the new chapel in Georgian style. It stood at Beekman Street and Cliff Street. St. George's Chapel was opened on the first day of July 2753. (In 1811 it became an independent parish, St. George's Church; now at Stuyvesant Square).

"Hanover Square was by then a center not only for publishing, but also for retail trade of all kinds. A contemporary newspaper advertisement mentions hats, clocks, looking-glasses, and East India goods....A distinguished resident of Hanover Square during the revolutionary period was Prince William Henry, later King William IV, known as 'the sailor king.'....After the establishment of the United States, the New York City government changed a number of downtown street names, so as to reflect the new spirit of the nation. Queen Street became Pearl Street. Duke Street went back to being Stone Street. Crown Street became Liberty Street; King Street became Pine Street. The name 'Hanover Square' was struck off the map, and the area officially became merely a part of Pearl Street. However, because of its long familiarity and prestige, 'Hanover Square' continued in popular use, and it was officially restored in 1830.

"In 1787 the Bank of New York moved to 11 Hanover Square (it later moved to Wall Street). In 1828 Hanover Square was much improved when the buildings on the lower end of the triangular block in the center were removed. But then the great fire of 1835 destroyed the entire area.

"In subsequent years, as the square was built up again, it took on an aspect that can still be appreciated in surviving buildings, especially present-day India House, built in Italianate style in 1851-1854. It originally housed the Hanover Bank, founded in 1851 and named for its location in the square; in the same building were W. R. Grace & Co., and the New York Cotton Exchange....

"Late in the 19th Century, the area literally fell under a shadow, when the Third Avenue Elevated Railroad went up (in the 1870s and 1990s). Hanover Square was one of the busiest stops on the line...."

India House eventually became a club organized by Williard Straight whose members had interests of some sort in the West Indies.
