1450 Broadway
1450 Broadway, also known as the Continental Building, is a 42-story office tower located at the corner of Broadway and West 41st Street in Midtown Manhattan’s Times Square district. Originally completed in 1931, the building contains approximately 390,000 to 400,000 square feet of office space and operates as a large-scale, multi-tenant asset within one of the most transit-accessible corridors in the city.
The property has undergone multiple capital upgrades, including a lobby renovation and infrastructure improvements completed in recent years. These updates include modernized building systems, upgraded elevator service with eleven passenger elevators, and improved security and access controls. The lobby and common areas have been repositioned to support higher-density tenancy and a more contemporary tenant experience while maintaining the building’s original Art Deco structure.
Floor plates vary throughout the tower, with upper floors offering more efficient layouts and broader exposure to natural light. Many spaces are delivered in pre-built condition, including full-floor opportunities that are relatively open and adaptable compared to older Midtown inventory. The building accommodates a wide range of tenants, including media, technology, retail-adjacent users, and financial firms, as well as flexible office operators.
The location is a primary advantage. Positioned directly in Times Square, the building sits adjacent to the Times Square–42nd Street transit hub, providing immediate access to the 1, 2, 3, N, Q, R, W, S, 7, A, C, and E subway lines. The Port Authority Bus Terminal, Grand Central Terminal, and Penn Station are all within walking distance, making the building highly accessible for employees commuting from across New York City, New Jersey, and the surrounding region.
Retail is integrated at the base of the building, contributing to consistent foot traffic and visibility along Broadway. This positioning supports tenants that benefit from proximity to consumer traffic, brand exposure, or client-facing accessibility.
1450 Broadway functions as a high-density Midtown tower offering a combination of scale, transit connectivity, and pre-built availability. It is best suited for tenants prioritizing central location, flexible layouts, and access to one of the most active commercial nodes in Manhattan, rather than boutique or low-density office environments.
