Baseboards Added to Interior Spaces at the Woolworth Building

Adding baseboards. — Adhesive is applied to the baseboards.

Final interior detailing continues at the Woolworth building with the installation of baseboards in future tenant spaces. The rubber baseboards are being placed along the base of the walls, creating a clean transition between the floor and wall surfaces. Beyond appearance, these baseboards serve an important functional role by protecting walls from scuffs, moisture and everyday wear, preparing spaces for regular use. This detail helps refine the interior while supporting durability, bringing the restored Woolworth building another step closer to its completed form.

Securing baseboards along wall. — Crews press baseboards firmly into position to ensure a clean, consistent fit.
