1 Penn Plaza is a premier Class A office tower directly above the northern entrance to Penn Station in Midtown Manhattan. Originally delivered in 1972, this 57-story asset has been systematically repositioned through a comprehensive capital improvement program—most notably rebranding as “PENN 1,” modernizing lobby finishes, and rolling out an integrated WorkLife amenity portfolio across the lower three floors to maximize tenant engagement and operational efficiency. Boasting efficient column-free floor plates, expansive curtainwall glazing for abundant daylight, and seamless intermodal connectivity via Amtrak, Long Island Rail Road, New Jersey Transit, and multiple subway lines, One Penn Plaza offers a best-in-class tenant experience tailored to forward-thinking organizations.
