$Unflustered by the stock market crash of October 1929, a number of Manhattan developers kept on ordering significant, new buildings right into the teeth of the Great Depression. One such unworried chap was the eponymous Julius Nelson, he who gave his name to the subject of this post. Mr. Nelson had already constructed three buildings in the Garment District and decided to site this new one right at its southern edge at 7th Avenue and W. 34th Street. \n\nNelson's chosen architect, H. Craig Severance had just witnessed the completion of his last design, the skyscraper at 40 Wall Street. On that building, he lost out to his former partner's contemporaneous design, William Van Allen's Chrysler Building, for the title of world's tallest structure. If that fazed him, he didn't show it, as he almost immediately picked up the commission for Mr. Nelson's new tower. \n\nRising 560 feet from the sidewalk, the 46-story building is a very handsome structure, arguably one of the best of the Art Deco period.

$The Fred F. French Building (551 Fifth Avenue) is one of the less-well-known Art Deco skyscrapers in New York City. And that’s a shame, because it’s one of the better designs of that era.\n\nThe Fred F. French Building is notable for its striking exterior design, characterized by intricate Art Deco ornamentation. The façade features setbacks and terraces that were a hallmark of the Art Deco style, creating a distinctive tiered appearance. The building's lower floors are adorned with ornate detailing, including stylized motifs, geometric patterns, and intricate carvings.\n\nOne of the most remarkable features of the building is its magnificent lobby. The lobby is lavishly decorated with marble finishes, ornate metalwork, and elaborate murals that depict scenes from French history and culture. This attention to detail and luxurious design elements reflect the opulence and craftsmanship of the Art Deco era.$
