75 Livingston Street, also known as the Court Chambers Building, or the Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce, is a 30-story 343 ft (105 m) residential cooperative tower located in Downtown Brooklyn, New York.[2]

Overview

The building was designed by architect Abraham J. Simberg, and built in 1926.[3] At one time in the past, the structure was called the Court-Livingston, due to its alternate street address of 66 Court Street.[4] Originally constructed as an office tower, the building was converted into cooperative apartments in 1981. It is currently a part of the Skyscraper Historic District in Brooklyn.[5][6]
