875 Third Avenue

875 Third Avenue is a Privately Owned Public Space on Third Avenue at 53rd Street in Midtown East, providing an outdoor plaza in the commercial corridor that extends northward from Grand Central Terminal.

Third Avenue in the low 50s is near the Citigroup Center, whose distinctive angled roofline is one of the most recognizable silhouettes on the Midtown skyline. The concentration of major office buildings along this stretch creates a dense commercial environment.

The POPS serves the Midtown East office community on an avenue whose transformation from elevated railway corridor to modern commercial boulevard was one of the defining infrastructure changes of postwar Manhattan.

Third Avenue's corporate plazas in the 50s serve the northernmost section of the avenue's office district, where the commercial character gradually transitions to the residential Upper East Side.

This plaza provides public outdoor space in the final stretch of Third Avenue's corporate corridor.
