Tishman Speyer to Transform MetLife Building with Major Renovation
New York -- Tishman Speyer recently announced a major re-imagination of the lobby and public areas of 200 Park Avenue, the classic 58-story, 3.1-million-square-foot building in Midtown Manhattan, commonly referred to as the MetLife Building.
Tishman Speyer and its investment partner, California-based Irvine Co., commissioned MdeAS Architects to reimagine the two-level, 50,000 square-foot lobby by restoring its original grandeur and creating a more intuitive, welcoming space for those who visit and work in the building. The project will strengthen the physical connection to Grand Central Terminal by reconstituting its original passageway between the transit hub and 45th Street, modernize all lobby technology, and introduce a wide array of Tishman Speyer's ZO. amenities for tenants.
