• The "Woolworth" Building Signal

  This theory held that the Woolworth Building was not simply a commercial skyscraper but a concealed signal tower, sometimes described as a radio mast for the Illuminati or for hidden financial elites. It emerged because the building was one of the most visually dominant structures in New York after its 1913 opening, was dressed in highly symbolic neo-Gothic ornament, and quickly acquired a public aura larger than ordinary office architecture. In rumor form, its height, lighting, self-contained machinery, and “Cathedral of Commerce” image were transformed into evidence of hidden transmission rather than ordinary commercial modernity.
