El carácter eminentemente monumental de este edificio proyectado en 1926 por el arquitecto Luis Sainz de los Terreros Gómez viene dado por su inmejorable emplazamiento, en la confluencia del segundo tramo de la Gran Vía con la plaza del Callao. Fue concebido en origen como sede social de la Compañía Adriática de Seguros, la cual ocupaba las plantas principal y primera. El resto de sus nueve plantas se destinaban a viviendas de alquiler, sin contar con los bajos a la calle, ocupados por dependencias comerciales.
Otro de los rasgos que acentúan su notable perfil monumental es la torre erigida en la confluencia de sus dos fachadas, proyectada como un templete dotado de una galería de columnas pareadas, coronado por una cúpula apuntada. El origen del edificio como sede de una compañía de seguros lo recuerda hoy el rótulo luminoso de la compañía Allianz que lo corona.

Vista da Líbero Badaró
Junto do Largo de São Francisco, na Líbero Badaró, 37, um dos mais belos exemplos de art-déco na cidade de São Paulo.
Eguido nos anos 30, com projeto de Dácio de Moraes para ser sede do Automóvel Club da cidade, foi adquirido ainda em obra, pela Companhia Paulista de Estradas de Ferro. Seria ótimo se todos os nossos edifícios históricos tivessem a mesma atenção que é dada ao "Saldanha".

The Kavanagh Building was the tallest building in South America when it was completed in 1935. It was also the tallest reinforced concrete building in the world. This 150 unit building, which combined elements of art deco, modernism, and rationalism, is said to have been the most technologically advanced residential tower of its time. It was financed by Corina Kavanagh, an heiress who belonged to a wealthy ranching family. Apparently, Kavanagh used up her entire fortune in the construction of this building, which is now a national landmark.
