Pedestrians primarily encounter the building as part of the urban streetscape rather than as a public visitor attraction.

Positioned on the east side of Midtown Manhattan, the building stands near the southeast corner of Central Park and adjacent to major Midtown shopping and transport nodes.

  • Mixed use: Contains office floors for a major global media company alongside residential and retail spaces, making it a mixed-use Manhattan high-rise.
