BRYANT PARK OFFICE SPACE

Bryant Park is an urban oasis in the form of a 9.6 acre park located amidst the towers of Midtown Manhattan. The Bryant Park district spans from 40th to 42th Streets and is bound by Fifth Avenue to the east and Sixth Avenue to the west. The park is privately managed in a unique model that provides public space for all to enjoy. According to statistics, Bryant Park is the most densely occupied park in the United States, with an average of 800 people per acre, each day.

The main branch of the New York Public Library, which is a Beaux Arts-style, marble-clad structure, anchors the park. Many commercial office buildings line the park, including the new Bank of America Tower. Bryant Park's commercial office space attracts tenants from the financial industry, as well as law and fashion.

Commercial Office Space in Bryant Park

Located on the northwest corner of Bryant Park, the new Bank of America Tower, also known as One Bryant Park, is currently the second tallest building in the city. The crystalline, glass-clad structure holds the distinction of being the first commercial high-rise to achieve LEED Platinum certification.

Other notable Class A commercial office buildings in the Bryant Park neighborhood include 500 Fifth Avenue, an Art Deco Tower designed by the same architects behind the Empire State Building; the Salmon Tower, known for its elaborate bas-reliefs; and the W.R. Grace Building, a sloping glass tower designed by Gordon Bunshaft of Skidmore, Owings & Merrill.

The former New York Telephone building at 1095 Avenue of the Americas underwent a $250 million renovation to re-clad it with glass and upgrade the interiors from Class B to Class A office space. Tenants include MetLife and the Bank of Scotland. Although it has been converted into a hotel, the American Radiator Building is another iconic tower that overlooks Bryant Park. It features a dark brick facade and is capped with a gold cornice that resembles a radiator coil.

Amenities of a Privately Managed Park

Bryant Park is located within a Manhattan Businesses Improvement District (BID), which is run by the Bryant Park Corporation. This non-profit organization invests money into improving the street-scape and the pedestrian experience, which can only benefit businesses that choose to locate in the area.

The Great Lawn of Bryant Park offers the largest expanse of green space in Manhattan south of Central Park, and it is a popular lunch and after-work destination for Midtown office workers. Food and drinks may be purchased from the Bryant Park Grill, Bryant Park Cafe or Tom Colicchio's 'wichcraft.

Each summer, the hugely popular HBO/Bryant Park Summer Film Festival is held on the lawn, and every winter, the space is converted into an ice rink. The TV show Good Morning America hosts a free Summer Concert Series on Friday mornings. The park has served as the backdrop for countless other television shows and movies. Fashion Week has traditionally been held in the park and during Christmas season, a holiday mall draws large crowds. Free wireless internet is also available throughout the park.
