1250 Broadway is a Privately Owned Public Space near Herald Square and the Garment District in Midtown South. The outdoor plaza provides public seating near one of the busiest commercial intersections in Manhattan.
Herald Square, where Broadway, Sixth Avenue, and 34th Street converge, is home to Macy's flagship department store and the surrounding retail district. The area draws millions of shoppers annually, particularly during the holiday season.
The Garment District, centered on Seventh Avenue in the 30s, was historically the heart of America's fashion manufacturing industry. While most manufacturing has moved overseas, the district retains fashion showrooms, design studios, and the Fashion Institute of Technology.
