Resolution Real Estate has completed a major renovation of the historic McGraw-Hill Publishing Company Building at 330 West 42nd Street in Manhattan. Designed by Raymond Hood, the 35-story building was originally constructed in 1931.

To upgrade the building to current market standards, designs from MDeaS Architects include open office floor plans, exposed steel ceiling beams, fully operable windows, outdoor terraces for select office suites, and a 11-meter-tall (35-foot-tall) lobby atrium. Tenant amenity spaces include multiple lounges, conference rooms, a wellness center, nine outdoor landscaped terraces comprising 1858 square meters (20,000 square feet), and event spaces with pre-function areas.

Featured Buildings

The total project cost around US$120 million to complete. Leasing launched in September led by Newmark.

New York City’s Landmarks Preservation Commission designated the building a city landmark in 1979 and it was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1980. Nine years later, the building was designated a National Historic Landmark.
