220 East 42nd Street | 2,973 RSF (Direct Lease)

The Daily News Building at 220 East 42nd Street is one of Midtown East’s most recognizable Art Deco office addresses. Located a short distance from Grand Central Terminal, the building gives tenants a landmark setting with strong access to East 42nd Street, Second Avenue and the broader Grand Central business district.

Designed by Raymond Hood and John Mead Howells and completed in 1930, the property was originally built for the New York Daily News. Its stepped tower, white-brick facade and celebrated lobby give the building a distinctive identity among East Midtown office options.

The building contains roughly one million square feet when its tower, annex and related office areas are considered together. Tenants benefit from a large office platform, strong neighborhood services and proximity to the 4, 5, 6, 7 and S subway lines at Grand Central.

For companies comparing Grand Central Class A buildings, 220 East 42nd Street offers the combination of architectural character, transit access and scale that can support both headquarters and institutional requirements. Noah & Co. can help evaluate available floors and market terms.
