20 Times Square, Mixed-use skyscraper in Times Square, Manhattan, US
20 Times Square is a 42-story glass tower located at the intersection of Seventh Avenue and West 47th Street in Manhattan. The structure houses a 452-room Marriott Edition Hotel, multiple restaurants, entertainment venues, and retail spaces spread across six floors.
The tower was built on the site of the Columbia Amusement Company Building dating to 1910, which housed multiple theaters and recording studios. This location was once a center of live entertainment production before commercial development shaped the modern district.
The building contributes to the visual language of Times Square with large LED displays that complement the neon signage surrounding it. Visitors notice how these screens become part of the district's evening character and commercial landscape.
The building is freely accessible with multiple entrances for hotel, dining, and retail areas located throughout the structure. Its location near subway stations and pedestrian walkways makes it easy to reach and explore.
The construction was innovative in acquiring air rights from nearby theaters like the Booth and Schoenfeld, allowing for a larger building footprint. This approach demonstrates how the project respected the district's historic theater legacy while enabling modern development in a densely built area.
