Hearst Tower, Skyscraper in Midtown Manhattan, United States.

The Hearst Tower rises 182 meters with 46 floors, featuring a geometric steel grid pattern along its glass exterior at 300 West 57th Street.

The original six-story Art Deco structure from 1928 remained incomplete during the Great Depression until Norman Foster designed the current tower in 2006.

The building houses multiple Hearst media publications including Cosmopolitan and Harper's Bazaar, serving as a central hub for journalism and publishing.

The tower contains 21 elevators, multiple conference spaces, a cafeteria, and a health center distributed across its office floors.

A three-story waterfall in the atrium uses recycled rainwater from the roof to maintain temperature and humidity levels throughout the building.

Modern architecture by Norman Foster

Sir Norman Foster designs buildings with innovative technical solutions. His structures combine steel, glass and energy efficiency. From the Reichstag dome in Berlin to the circular Apple headquarters in California, his works demonstrate technical precision. Foster has shaped London's skyline with 30 St Mary Axe tower and the Millennium Bridge.
