608 Fifth Avenue, Office building in Midtown Manhattan, US.

608 Fifth Avenue is an eleven-story office building in Midtown Manhattan with a facade of green and white marble. The structure combines Art Deco and International style elements throughout its design.

Robert Walton Goelet built this structure in 1932 on the site of a former mansion belonging to his family. The project transformed that location from residential to commercial use.

The lobby displays the Goelet family crest and incorporates six different types of marble sourced from around the world. This mix of fine materials creates an impressive first impression for anyone entering the building.

The building offers office spaces in various sizes to serve different business needs. Visitors should note the S-shaped entrance lobby that leads to the elevators.

The interior is decorated with a rare selection of colored marble types, including Aurora Rossa and Belgian black. These materials were sourced from different countries and create a refined interior character throughout.
