PHOENIX LIFE INSURANCE BUILDING


Hartford, CT - This building is an elliptic lenticular cylinder; most people just call it the "Ship Shaped building". This uniquely shaped building is a major architectural landmark in Hartford. It was designed by Max Abramovitz; building was started in 1961 and completed in 1963. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places; I believe because of its unique style.
