When One Wall Street was designated a New York City Landmark in March 2001, it was described as “one of New York’s most extraordinary Art Deco masterpieces.” More recently, when a plaque presented by the New York Landmarks Preservation Foundation was unveiled by the office-turned-condominium’s residential entrance on Broadway, Landmarks Preservation Commission Chair Sarah Carroll described the building as “poised once again to serve as a symbol of our city’s resiliency and ingenuity, proof we can look to the future while honoring our connection to the past.” New York City Mayor Eric Adams issued an official citation in honor of the occasion, and building developer Harry Macklowe delivered remarks before the unveiling.

The apartments at One Wall Street are now open for immediate occupancy. Closings commenced about six months ago and come to an average price of $1,920 per square foot. Current availabilities range from a studio for $1,150,000 to a three-bedroom for $9,750,000.
While One Wall Street's landmarked exteriors by "architect of the century" Ralph Walker were beautifully restored with limestone from the original Indiana quarry, the interiors were totally gutted to carve out the apartments and amenities. The elevators were removed and centralized in the center of the building to let in more light and air, and a core was carved out in the building; it now serves as storage space on all floors. Some of the original elevator doors and a mailbox are on display at the Whole Foods in the base of the building, and the beautifully restored Red Room will be part of the forthcoming Printemps, the Parisian department store's first outpost in the United States.
