452 Fifth Avenue, Office skyscraper on Fifth Avenue, Manhattan, US

The building combines a 30-story glass tower with a preserved 10-story Knox Building at its base, facing Bryant Park in Midtown Manhattan.

Constructed in 1984, the structure integrates the 1902 Knox Building, which originally housed the Knox Hat Company headquarters and retail store.

The tower represents the evolution of Fifth Avenue architecture, merging early 20th-century Beaux-Arts design with 1980s commercial construction methods.

Located at the intersection of Fifth Avenue and 40th Street, the building contains 863,000 square feet of office space across 30 floors.

The glass facade curves around the original Knox Building, creating an L-shaped structure that measures 197 feet along Fifth Avenue.

Location: Manhattan
