535 Madison Avenue is a Privately Owned Public Space on Madison Avenue in Midtown East, providing an outdoor plaza between 54th and 55th Streets in the heart of the luxury commercial corridor.
Madison Avenue in the mid-50s is among the most commercially prestigious addresses in the world, with corporate headquarters, luxury retail, and high-end professional services occupying every available square foot.
The building at 535 Madison Avenue, designed by Edward Larrabee Barnes, is a postmodern tower whose clean lines and granite base create a dignified presence on an avenue known for architectural sophistication.
The POPS serves the Madison Avenue commercial community with outdoor seating and gathering space in the most intensively developed section of one of the world's most famous avenues.
This plaza provides public space on the avenue that gave American advertising its cultural identity, in the heart of the luxury commercial district that defines Midtown East.
