These wonderfully ornate wrought iron elevator panels were salvaged from 150 Nassau St. in lower Manhattan. They originally served as part of an elevator assembly, including doors and panels, when they were first installed in the American Tract Society Building. Construction on the building began around 1894 and ended 1896. The 23-story neo-Renaissance building was designed with a U-shaped plan and a light court on the south side. The semicircular lobby had marble decor and a coffered ceiling. It was here that these beautiful elements served as part of a manually operated elevator. The panels pictured on the right have been restored by the artisans in our LIC factory. Restoration included the installation of frosted glass panels located behind the detailed ornamentation. Having many applications, the panels can be custom tailored to fit your design needs. They are shown here as a functional partition with a hinged door. Please call our Franklin Street location for further information on custom restoration. The iron panels are part of a lot in varying condition. Additional panels are available. Pricing shown below is per-panel and pre-restoration.
