A Class A jewel in Midtown South

The 21-story landmark office tower at 360 Park Avenue South was originally completed in 1913. It was designed by Neville & Bagge, one of the most prolific architecture firms in New York City at the beginning of the 20th Century.

Nowadays, it’s undergoing a transformative redevelopment to position itself as a premier destination for tech, and financial firms
