The gothic art deco designed GE Building does have its caveats – namely its small floors with floor plates that are below the average minimum for most big companies. But for those smaller companies whereby views and having a full-floor identity were important this type of building is the perfect fit. Running along at about 17,000 square feet at the base and thinning out at 3,000 square feet in the tower – those looking for unique space with ‘wow’ factor will find it here!

With the overall up-sizing of spaces throughout the city, small floors in time should once again return to favor, and fantastic buildings like this will become highly desirable.
