In 1983, Turner completed 590 Madison Avenue, a prominent structure in Midtown Manhattan.

Also known as the @IBM Building, this 41-story skyscraper is distinguished by its unique pentagonal design and reflective glass façade.

Designed by Edward Larrabee Barnes, the building features a spacious public atrium, offering an open and modern space within the bustling urban landscape of Madison Avenue.

Interestingly, the IBM Building was one of the first to introduce green spaces within its atrium, a trend that would later become common in New York skyscrapers.
