Description 

The acquisition of 205 East 42nd Street by Joseph Durst in 1944 signaled the first step in The Durst Organization’s monumental transformation of Third Avenue into the highly coveted office submarket it is today. Surrounded by restaurants, hotels, corporate headquarters, and countless transit options, this stately 1927 brick-clad Class A office property recently underwent extensive capital improvements to even better serve its diverse tenant base.
Located a mere block from Grand Central Terminal, 205 East 42nd Street most notably features a masterfully restored Art Deco lobby, new windows, new life safety systems, 3,625 SF of green roofs, and tenant terrace opportunities punctuated by sweeping Midtown East views.
