One Astor Plaza, Skyscraper in Theater District, Manhattan, US
One Astor Plaza is a modern skyscraper with 54 floors and a height of 227 meters, with a glass facade that reflects the light and surrounding buildings of Times Square. The complex combines office space, retail areas, and entertainment venues in a single structure.
The building was completed in 1972, replacing the Hotel Astor which operated from 1904 until its demolition in 1967. This transformation marked the shift from historic hotel buildings to modern office towers in this area.
MTV has operated production studios here since 1997, creating television content for a global audience. The second floor became a recognized hub for media production in the city.
The ground level offers retail spaces and banking services with direct access to multiple subway lines near Times Square station. Its location at a major transit hub makes reaching the plaza straightforward and convenient.
The Minskoff Theatre occupies the third floor, making it one of the few Broadway venues integrated into a Manhattan office tower. This unusual arrangement shows how entertainment spaces blend seamlessly into the urban environment.
