Building Details

285 Madison Avenue is a distinctive pre-war Class A office building on the northeast corner of Madison Avenue and East 40th Street in the Grand Central submarket. Also associated with the Murray Hill Building identity in some directories, the property combines a Madison Avenue address with walkable access to Grand Central.

Building profiles commonly describe a roughly 26- to 27-story tower with total area figures ranging from about 407,000 to 530,000 square feet depending on the data source. Construction dates to 1926, giving tenants a pre-war shell with a recognizable Midtown East street presence.

Modern leasing materials position the asset as upgraded Class A product, including LEED Gold certification references in commercial listings. That combination of historic address and contemporary performance credentials appeals to firms that want character without sacrificing systems quality.

The corner of Madison and 40th keeps staff close to Park Avenue, Grand Central Terminal, hotels, and the professional corridor running north toward 42nd Street. Subway, bus, taxi, and regional rail options support hybrid schedules and client traffic.

For tenants comparing Madison Avenue versus Third Avenue product, 285 Madison offers pre-war identity, Class A positioning, and Grand Central proximity. Contact Noah & Co. to review current suites and how the building compares with nearby alternatives.
