500 Fifth Avenue

500 Fifth Avenue is a classic art deco skyscraper completed in 1931 ( same year as Empire State Building). Located at Fifth and 42nd Streets.

It is 60 stories tall and I feel a classic example of that era of tall office buildings...has a a grace and distinctiveness that are lacking in so many modern office towers.
