Prominent Park Ave Buildings: 300 Park Ave, Colgate-Palmolive Bldg | PARK AVENUE OFFICE SPACEThe very name of Park Avenue conjures prestige as does the name of no other thoroughfare in America. Once, Park Avenue in Midtown was covered in railroad yards. Then, in the early 20th century, the new Grand Central Terminal was built, and the yards were decked over. It was now possible for Park Avenue to be redeveloped with commercial office space, apartment houses, and hotels. After World War II, new office rentals replaced older ones, as well as the apartments and some of the hotels. Today, Park Avenue, from 46th to 59th streets, projects an image of corporate power as does no other street in America.
