The Downtown Club at 20 West Street is a 288 unit condominium conversion of the landmarked Downtown Athletic Club, completed in 2006 by The Moinian Group. The 35 story, 534 foot Art Deco tower was designed by Starrett & Van Vleck in 1930, the same firm behind Saks Fifth Avenue, Lord & Taylor, and a major Bloomingdales expansion. Designated an official New York City landmark in 2000, the building features mottled orange brick with elegant corbelling and setbacks that create a distinctive silhouette in the Financial District skyline. The building was historically significant as the home of the Heisman Memorial Trophy, awarded annually to college football's most outstanding player.
