Candler Building, Historic skyscraper in Times Square, Manhattan, US.
The Candler Building rises 24 stories high with a rectangular tower facing 42nd Street and a 17-story rear wing overlooking 41st Street.
The building, constructed between 1912 and 1913 for Coca-Cola owner Asa Griggs Candler, predates New York City's 1916 zoning regulations for skyscrapers.
Throughout its existence, the structure housed entertainment firms, city agencies, and most recently served as temporary housing for asylum seekers.
The building features independent emergency staircases, a facade made of cast stone material, and spans from West 42nd Street to West 41st Street.
The structure contained the most frequented McDonald's restaurant in the United States before standing vacant and awaiting conversion into a hotel.
