The Tower at 1221 Avenue of the Americas in Midtown Manhattan is a prominent building that was constructed as an extension of the Rockefeller Center in 1971. Designed by architect Wallace Harrison, it stands as an iconic part of the New York City skyline.
Originally serving as the headquarters for McGraw-Hill Financial, many people still refer to the building as the McGraw-Hill Building. Owned by the Rockefeller Group, this office tower provides modern amenities and underwent significant upgrades and renovations in 2015, ensuring it remains competitive and attractive to tenants in the heart of Midtown Manhattan.
The structure itself consists of 51 floors, with a distinctive seven-story base that contributes to its architectural significance and visual appeal in the bustling Midtown area.
