One Worldwide Plaza, Postmodern skyscraper in Midtown Manhattan, United States.
One Worldwide Plaza rises 237 meters with 50 floors, featuring a distinct copper roof and glass pyramid atop its granite and brick exterior structure.
The building, completed in 1989, stands on the former location of the third Madison Square Garden, marking a transition in Manhattan's architectural development.
David Childs from Skidmore Owings Merrill designed this office tower, incorporating architectural elements that reflect late 20th-century commercial building trends.
