1740 Broadway, Streamline Moderne skyscraper near 55th Street in Manhattan, United States.
The limestone and grey granite 1740 Broadway building rises 375 feet with 27 stories in a rectangular configuration on the east side of the street.
Architects Shreve, Lamb & Harmon designed this office building in 1950 as the headquarters for Mutual of New York Group, marking post-World War II development.
The building's Weather Star tower generated weather forecasts through colored lights: green for fair weather, orange for clouds, flashing orange for rain.
Located between 55th and 56th Streets, the building features a digital board displaying current time and temperature at the base of its tower.
The 1968 song 'Mony Mony' by Tommy James and the Shondells drew inspiration from the neon MONY sign that adorned the building until 2007.
