Tower Research Capital
Corporate Interiors
L&K Partners Inc. was selected by Tower Research Capital to complete a full build-out of their new, multi-floor office space located in the iconic Equitable Life Building in the heart of New York City. This landmark property, originally constructed in 1915, offered a rare opportunity to blend historical elegance with modern workplace design.
With 23-foot-high ceilings and panoramic city views in every direction, the project endeavored revitalize the existing historic elements and maintain the architectural integrity of a century-old structure.
The scope of work includes construction across three floors, including a design-build internal staircase, state-of-the-art conference rooms, executive offices, event space, lounge and game room. Former dining halls of the historic “Bankers Club” were transformed into high-performance trading quads, outfitted with advanced AV infrastructure to support the firm’s tech-driven operations.
One of the most unique features of this project was the careful integration of original terracotta ceilings, meticulously preserved to honor the building’s historic charm. Ornate column capitals and decorative cherub details required, in some cases, complete reconstruction.
This renovation is a prime example of our ability to merge heritage architecture with contemporary functionality—bringing timeless spaces into the modern era.
