This Class-A premier office building in Midtown Manhattan is designed to provide the next generation of state-of-the-art, net-zero workspaces steps away from Grand Central Terminal.
Designed for the future of work, this elegant, all-electric office tower rises over 800 feet through a series of landscaped setbacks to a soaring amenity level, which offers tenants co-working and conference spaces, a high-end lounge with indoor and outdoor dining, and spectacular views across the city. The building’s 46 floors range in size from 22,000 to 27,000 square feet, offering wide column-free spaces and floor-to-ceiling glass windows to maximize daylight access and promote occupant well-being.
At street level, large-format glass panels mark the entrance to the building’s double-height lobby while the high-performance façade above is animated by curved glazing elements that add texture and depth. The tower’s setbacks are highlighted by multileveled trusses, bronze-colored walls, and a signature lighting scheme, which create the defining architectural feature of the tower. The rooftop is treated with similar consideration and accentuates the building’s state-of-the-art, all-electric mechanical system.
Relying on air-source heat pumps and targeting LEED Platinum, 343 Madison Avenue uses no fossil fuels on site and will be carbon neutral upon the decarbonization of New York City’s energy grid. Public realm improvements, including a setback that adds seven feet of width to the sidewalk along Madison Avenue, a direct connection to Grand Central Madison, and an extensive below-grade pedestrian network further distinguish 343 Madison from other New York City skyscrapers.
