Features
1 Wall Street Court contains a superstructure made entirely of steel. The floor arches and partitions are made of fireproof brick. In the original layout, all woodwork was covered with fireproof materials; the floors of the corridors were made of mosaic and marble, while the office floors were made of cement.
1 Wall Street Court contains four elevators along its western side.
An enclosed fire stair with marble treads is on the building's northwest corner.
As built, 1 Wall Street Court also had two boilers that provided steam for three electric generators aggregating .

ceiling, wood-paneled and mirrored walls, and wood-and-metal elevator doors. The mezzanine, a U-shaped space above of the first floor, is reached by a stair on the west side.
The second floor was used as office space for its first hundred years. A "typical floor" would have an elevator landing on the west, a corridor extending east, and offices on either side of the corridor as well as at the narrow corner.
The corridors were originally made of mosaic and marble, while the office floors were cement,
and there were glass panels along the corridors prior to the building's 1937 renovation.
In the original layout, toilets were placed on the second, fourth, and tenth floors.
Because of the interior arrangement and small lot size, all of the interior space was directly lit by a window. ''Architects' and Builders' Magazine'' said upon the building's completion that 1 Wall Street Court contained possibly "a larger window area relative to floor space than in any other office building in the city". Further renovations led to the replacement of the floors, walls, and doors. By 2006, the office space was converted to 126 condominium apartments.
History
Construction
![Beaver building nypl](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/3/36/Beaver_building_nypl.jpg)
During the late 19th century, builders began erecting tall office buildings in New York City, especially in Lower Manhattan, where they were compelled to build tall structures due to a lack of available land. One such project was led by the Century Realty Company, who hired Clinton and Russell in 1903 to design a

on a narrow lot at Beaver and Pearl Streets.
The Remington Construction Company was hired as the contractor for the building, which was planned to cost $600,000.
Work began in June 1903.
Ownership of the Beaver Building was transferred the next month to the Beaver and Wall Street Corporation.
During construction, some of the workers went on strike, prompting the Remington Construction Company to hire
longshoremen for the project.
Construction was completed in October 1904.
Original floor plans indicate that the first story had a partition between the two commercial spaces to the west and east; only the western space had a mezzanine.

took up offices in the Beaver Building in May 1904.
The building was sold to the Hoffman family in 1905 for $1.25 million in cash.
''The New York Times'' described the transaction as the "first cash purchase of a downtown skyscraper reported in several years".
The Munson Steamship Line bought the Beaver Building in July 1919, when the building was estimated to be worth $1.5 million.
The Beaver Building was intended as the headquarters of the Munson Line, so it was renamed the Beaver-Munson Building.
Shortly afterward, the company announced plans for the 25-story Munson Building at 67 Wall Street, across Beaver Street from the Beaver Building. When the Munson Building opened in 1921, it replaced the Beaver Building as the Munson Line's headquarters.
The Munson Line retained ownership of the Beaver Building, which continued to be occupied by tenants involved mainly in shipping, produce, and importing and exporting. However, by the 1930s, these tenants had started to move elsewhere,
and the Munson Line itself suffered from financial difficulties throughout the 1920s and 1930s.
A first mortgage loan of $750,000 was placed on the Beaver Building in 1928.

The New York Cocoa Exchange leased more space in the Beaver Building in June 1937. As part of the lease extension, the Bowery Savings Bank hired F. P. Platt & Bros to expand the mezzanine above the first floor for the Cocoa Exchange's use, increasing the exchange's floor area from to . In October 1937, the bank announced plans to renovate the building at a cost of between two and three hundred thousand dollars. The Beaver Building's electrical, heating, and plumbing systems would be replaced, and the facade would be extensively cleaned. The interiors would also receive major modifications, with new automatic elevators and rearranged interior partitions. The first floor partition wall was relocated to the west and a new stair was built to the mezzanine.
The Bowery Savings Bank sold the Beaver Building and its four-story annex in 1944 to investor Jerome Greene; at the time, the annex housed the Swan Club. The building was sold again in 1951, this time to an investment syndicate represented by lawyer David Rapoport. At the time, the Buffet Exchange Restaurant and the Cocoa Exchange were both lessees of the space. Records indicate that the lobby was renovated again during 1952, during which deteriorated marble paneling was removed.
Sources disagree on the order of subsequent sales. According to ''The New York Times'', the property was then sold to Klausner Associates, and then to investor Arthur H. Bienenstock in 1959, with the latter planning to renovate the elevators and clean the exterior. However, the

The Cocoa Exchange moved to 127 John Street in 1972.
Later use
In January 1985, British developers London & Leeds acquired the Beaver Building, at which point about 70 percent of the space was vacant. After purchasing the building, London & Leeds renamed it One Wall Street Court and renovated the interior, refurbishing the lobby, elevators, and electrical and HVAC systems. Inside, the first-floor partition wall was removed and the mezzanine stair was again replaced.
In addition, various improvements were made to the exterior; new windows and window louvers were installed, the base masonry was painted, and metal lights were fixed.
The windows in the basement were covered over.
The building was purchased in 1994 by Cocoa Partners, a
