Property Details
Boston Properties will close the 601 Lexington Avenue Atrium until 2018.

You are able to distinguish it from the adjacent NYC skyline by its distinctive 45 degree-angled top being a fixture to the flat-roofed prisms of midtown Manhattan, Citigroup’s pitched roof has turned into a effective indication of its namesake corporation. 601 Lexington Avenue’s world-recognized silhouette was created by Hugh Stubbins & Associates and Emery Roth & Sons. Built-in 1977, the retail atrium and open-air concourse were renovated in 1997. But it’s the bottom of the building that actually helps make the tower so unique. In 2008, building owner Boston Properties started the entire process of renaming the tower “601 Lexington Avenue”. Renovation from the lobby led to moving from the tower’s entrance from 53rd Street to Lexington Avenue. The bottom nine of its 59 stories are in essence large grand columns stilts. A new office lobby was built in 2010, the 601 Lexington Avenue site included an adjacent six-story office building and public plaza in need of renovation.

It’s most likely the most eye-catching skyscraper built-in within the 1970s due to its elegant and memorable shape, but additionally due to its unique base that merges with the Midtown’s city setting. This 59-story tower has direct accessibility to the Atrium Shops and Cafes, the best place to find top class retail shopping, restaurants, and a fitness center. Additionally, it offers flexible options towards accessing and traveling to any of the city;s five boroughs through this prime location directly above a sizeable subway hub as this.

In contracting Gensler, the building owners focus was not tied to the escalating of rents, but by improving the quality standard of the neighborhood by looking into making a unique plaza and atrium space. In keeping the brand new outside plaza and terraces make room for additional dining and retail options, while stimulating the market office component. The resulting 200,000-square-feet redevelopment transforms an internally focused space right into a busy urban oasis for Manhattan’s Midtown East neighborhood.
