888 7th Avenue, Modernist skyscraper in Midtown Manhattan, United States.

The 888 7th Avenue rises 46 floors into the Manhattan skyline, featuring a symmetrical facade with glass and steel elements characteristic of Neues Bauen design.

The architectural firm Emery Roth & Sons completed this commercial tower in 1971, during a period of significant development in Manhattan's urban landscape.

The building reflects the shift toward modernist architectural principles in New York City through its emphasis on functional design and clean geometric forms.

Twenty elevators serve the structure's occupants, while its location at coordinates 40.7652, -73.9808 provides direct access to multiple subway stations.

The combination of Neues Bauen style with Manhattan's urban context creates a distinctive example of 1970s commercial architecture in New York City.
