History

The building opened in 1969. [3] It is 16 stories tall [6] and covers about 1.8 million square feet (170,000 m2). [7] In the 1980s, the external structure was painted beige and brown metal siding was added. [8] [6] In 2003, cosmetic work was done to the precast concrete facade. [9]

Brookfield Properties acquired the property in 2011. [8] In 2014, Brookfield began a $300 million project to replace the brutalist architecture concrete exterior with a glass facade and replace the interior and mechanical systems. [10] The design work was done by REX. [8] When renovation of the building was completed in 2017, it was renamed 5 Manhattan West. [5] In April 2018, Brookfield obtained a $1.15 billion mortgage loan secured by the building. [11]
