Pace Institute was founded in 1906 as a business school by the brothers Homer St. Clair Pace and Charles A. Pace. Pace University was originally housed in the old New York Tribune Building at 154 Nassau Street, demolished in 1966. In 1947, Pace Institute was approved for college status by the New York State Board of Regents.

In 1951, the college purchased the old N.Y. Times Building at 41 Park Row, its first campus building and a New York City designated landmark. Construction of the One Pace Plaza Civic Center complex began in 1966, after demolition of the old Tribune Building.
