The Fuller Building was built for the Fuller Construction Company. Overall, this building is fairly plain except for its top and bottom. The bottom has a wide base that is six stories tall. The second picture above shows the top of the entrance that is four stories up. The two male figures are standing in front of a city skyline, presumably built by Fuller Construction Company. Elie Nadelman was the artist who built this sculpture.
The lobby, shown in the fifth picture above, features a mosaic showing many of the famous buildings that the company constructed, including this one. The lobby also features many black and white geometric patterns. Both the building and its interior have been designated New York landmarks.
The six-story base is topped with a more narrow twelve-floor tower. The top of the tower is very Art Deco and features zigzags, stars, and sun-like patterns.
