I used to work in this building. It's the World HQ for Credit Suisse and is usually just referred to as 11 Madison.

The building is AMAZING inside, and HUGE. Even at its current stumpy height, it's nearly as large as the Empire State Building. If it were built to it's planned height (which is still possible), it would easily be the largest private office building on earth.

Another cool aspect of the building is the sublevels. There are four huge and grand (high ceilings, art deco ornamentation) sublevels. You really go deep into the earth at 11 Madison.

The building also has a very impressive lobby (one of the best in NY) and two world-class restaurants.
