In 1926, restaurateur Oscar Tucci purchased the ground floor and the basement of 56 Beaver Street and reopened Delmonico's as a speakeasy. During the 1920s and 1930s the upper floors of 56 Beaver Street were being used as offices for ship insurance, legal offices, and other types of offices. In 1933, after the repeal of Prohibition, Tucci was given the third liquor license in New York City and quickly renamed the restaurant to Oscar's Delmonico's. By the 1940s Tucci was able to purchase the entire building. Delmonico's in the Tucci era was open through 1986 with its final closure of the Greenwich, Connecticut, location after the death of Oscar Tucci's son Mario Tucci. Other Delmonico's have operated in the space from the late 1980s to 1992 and since 1998.
