The Paramount Building at fifteen hundred and one Broadway stands as a monument to the golden age of cinema. When it was completed in nineteen twenty-seven, it served as the eastern headquarters for Paramount Pictures and was the tallest structure in Times Square. The architects, Cornelius and George Rapp, were famous for designing opulent movie palaces, and they brought that flair to this thirty-three-story skyscraper. It was designed to be a beacon of the motion picture industry, intended to make a lasting impression on everyone who visited the heart of the city.
