about 2 grand central towerWith 664,000 square feet of Class A office space available, Two Grand Central Tower made quite an impact on the Manhattan skyline when it was erected in 1982. Although it was one of the first LEED-certified energy-efficient buildings at the time, renovations have brought it up to Gold LEED certification, and tenants are anxious to take full advantage of the location right in the heart of the city’s dynamic transportation hub.

The building has always offered exceptional natural light with windows overlooking some of the most desirable views of Midtown Manhattan, and tenants are attracted to the building’s fabulous outdoor public plaza.
