Smile NEW YORK | 375 Park Avenue - Seagram Building | 515 FT | 38 FLOORS

Quote:
One of the finest examples of modernist architecture, the Seagram Building in Midtown Manhattan was designed by world-renowned architect Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, alongside Philip Johnson. The 38-story skyscraper was built in 1958 and it was Mies van der Rohe’s first office building and his only project built in New York City.

The tower paved the way for modern skyscraper design, and was the first office building in the city to feature floor-to-ceiling windows. The ground-floor plaza is also highly acclaimed and a popular gathering spot in the Plaza District, and skyscrapers built after the Seagram Building replicated this model. The building spurred a rezoning project that encouraged the inclusion of ‘privately owned public spaces’ at the base of office towers.
