Trump Tower is a mixed-use skyscraper on Fifth Avenue in Midtown Manhattan, New York City, completed in the early 1980s. The building contains retail, office and residential components under a high-rise tower.

Developed and completed by Donald J. Trump and his company in the late 1970s and early 1980s, the project consolidated commercial and residential functions into a single tower that became an iconic part of Midtown Manhattan’s skyline. The building has retained a prominent public profile due to its location and use.

The tower stands on Fifth Avenue in Midtown Manhattan, within walking distance of Central Park and other major Midtown attractions.

  • Completion date and size: Completed in 1983, the building is a mixed-use 58-storey skyscraper on Fifth Avenue in Midtown Manhattan.
  • Mixed-use nature: It combines retail, office and residential spaces with public-facing ground-floor retail on a prime Manhattan avenue address.

What to See#

  • Atrium and retail levels: The multi-storey atrium and retail concourse that occupy the lower levels, featuring a large central indoor atrium with shops and public circulation space.
  • Residential and office tower: Residential and office floors above the podium, housing private residences, offices and corporate suites in the tower portion of the building.

How to Get to Trump Tower#

Trump Tower is on Fifth Avenue between East 56th and East 57th Streets in Midtown Manhattan.
